We are three ordinary women from Swindon that got together to write our story Tenacity. I am Julie Rose, born in Australia. I work for a large company advising on Mortgages. Michelle Cowell and Sarah Cowell are sisters, the daughters of Marilyn Cowell who died before her story could be told. Michelle is a carer and Sarah works for a book company in customer services. Three years of hard work, a lot of research and commitment, through personal tragedy -- and Tenacity was born. Since finishing the book we have appeared in the local newspaper, the Oxford Mail, the Sunday Express and a Dutch newspaper.
