I was born in Sidcup Kent, England and lived there until my parents moved to Sutton, Surrey when I was six years old.  By that age, I always ‘had my head in a book’ when I wasn’t making up stories even when I should have been concentrating on other things.

At seventeen, I met my future husband, soon married him and settled in Kenya with him.  We were blessed with five children, who, since their father’s death, have been very supportive.  I now have ten grandchildren with whom I share my love of reading.

To become a published novelist has been a lifetime ambition.  In spite of many set backs, I will be fortunate enough to achieve this with the publication of Tangled Hearts,

Apart from writing I enjoy my studies of classical Indian literature - particularly 'Bhagavad Gita As It Is' - reading for pleasure and research, visiting places of interest, gardening, creative crafts and cooking.  Unfortunately, I have a sweet tooth which I try to control.

Time spent with my family, most of who live near me in Hertfordshire, England, is precious.
