Biography
I never intended to be an author - it kind of happened by accident. I've always kept diaries since my teens (many years ago) and ended up with a collection of true stories about life but mainly food, dieting efforts, relationships, clothes shopping, shoes and chocolate - the usual type of women's issues, many of which, in particular, were pertinent to my current book, THE FAT BAG stuck between a rock cake & a hard plaice (I simply love the play on words).
When this book came together, on advice from friends, I decided to publish it and writing became a worthy and enjoyable pastime. The title of the book has a double-meaning, which all gets explained at the end.
I've continued the story by writing a sequel to THE FAT BAG which should be complete and published by early spring.
