I'm a Girl from the North Country and proud of it. Married with 4 children and 10 grandchildren, I retired from teaching Maths to watch people, which is especially easy when on holiday in France! The wine helps. My first attempt at a book was very recently, although I had written short stories (unpublished)and poetry(probably dreadful) for years, and essays while studying for my degrees. My next project was a family saga, which I have published as part of NaNoWriMo. It's based on the saga of MY family of course! And being set "up north" it's grim! And then? A collection of short stories, about some of the people in my first book, again set in a village in the Languedoc, which is now published. And next? I'm trying "something completely different", a story of a group of college friends, who don't want to grow old gracefully. The names have been changed to protect the innocent and hide the guilty. It is part fact, part fiction - and it's published here too.
When my books are free on here, I ask people to make a small donation to charity in lieu of the cost. At my own Just Giving page, I have raised over £200 for cancer charities.
