I was born and raised in North Yorkshire in the North East of England with three older brothers. From the age of seven, I became a member of my local library, and was backwards and forwards perusing the children’s section at least twice a week. I still live in my birth town with my son and daughter, and their respective families being in close proximity.
Having worked in accounts offices since leaving school, I passed my accountancy qualifications when my children were very young and have now spent over thirty years of my working life as a company accountant.
I have always been interested in writing and have written many poems and some short stories over the years. I started writing seriously in 2014 when I completed the book 1 of the erotic Goings On series. Book 2 followed in 2015. These two books have now been revamped and given new titles, ‘The Hurt’ and ‘The Healing’. Book 3 is called ‘The Scars’. Being a reader of many genres of novels, I would also love to write a suspense thriller in the future, and possibly a comedy. Now retired, I recently released my fourth book, a collection of my short stories and flash fiction, which is called, 'A Little More Of Me...'
I have a keen interest in spiritualism/mediumship and have attended several workshops including some at the Arthur Findlay Spiritualist College at Stansted to develop my skills further.
I love nothing better than having fun with my youngest granddaughters. During quieter moments, I enjoy a cryptic crossword, chess, gardening and running my website blog page where I feature book promos by guest authors. I also help run a Creative Writing class every Tuesday morning.
