ABOUT ME
I have taught for nearly 30 years in UK primary classrooms and am passionate about writing.
My first children’s story book was published in 1996. Twenty further titles have followed - see the 'publications' section on this website for further details. Currently I am working on a book about football.
Now teaching part time, I write more, lead whole school story writing days, inset training and adult writing courses.

I am also involved with 2 different Christian charities working in Croatia and Latin America.
Hobbies include reading, gardening, watching films, eating meals with friends and dreaming up quirky ideas whilst lying next to a swimming pool with palm trees swaying gently in the breeze…
I live with my husband who is called Derek and we have one son called Toby, another called Tom and a daughter-in-law called Sarah.
