EH Walter

EH Walter was born in Portsmouth and raised in Hampshire. She escaped to the north for university where her friends thought she was a southern tosser who lived in a castle. For nine years she was a jobbing actress, her last job was playing a warthog and since that was a pinnacle that could not be topped she retired to seek a decent wage with a pension. She took her MA in Creative Writing at the University of Chichester where she later also trained to be a teacher in search of the decent wage and a pension. In light of goverment changes to the teachers' pension scheme she started writing to escape Ofsted and to provide for her future. And because it's fun. Her only awards have been twenty-five metres swimming and third prize in the Ilkley Literary Festival short story competition. In 2011 she ran the Virgin London Marathon in support of her chosen charity - Aspire. She now lives in London and writes furiously in between planning lessons for eleven year olds.
