I have been writing for many years on/off. I loved penning short stories as a child and the thrill, or my imagination never left me. I began writing 'Echoes' seventeen years ago following the death of my son at birth; it was a way to hide from my grief. It went through many transitions, but was eventually launched in 2012 and it's achievements so far are written below. I am currently working on my third and fourth novels and finishing my children's stories. I have a daughter with Autism who shows me everyday what true courage is and I strife to work hard and enjoy life. A major influence has to go to 'Murder she wrote'!!! It's what I inspired to be as a child - not to investigate murder, but to have my own desk , with my own typewriter (no computers then!) and be so successful, I'd be given a nice room in a fancy hotel!!!!  

'Echoes' won the e-book category in the Paris book festival. Was awarded an Honourable mention in the New England book festival and awarded five stars by Readers Favourite It has recently been awarded (Dec 2014) another Honorable Mention in the London book festival being held in the British library in January 2015.
'Echoes' has been taken up by a publisher and was given a producers plan by John Crye of Voyage media who said he could see it as a 'Gothic thriller on par with the likes of 'The Woman in Black and 'The Skeleton Key'. It now sits waiting for the right producer/director to come along.
My second novel 'Freya's Child' continues to receive five star reviews.
