Biography
Ever since I can remember, I've always had something to say and I've always written. But whereas I've continually been more than happy to share my opinions, the same most definitely couldn't be said of my scribblings...
I was born and raised in Lancashire and after leaving school I undertook a variety of jobs - from office work to teaching in Further Education, from managing a Training & Advice Centre to being an outreach worker for Women's Aid. So, it's fair to say my working life has given me the chance to get to know all kinds of people, from all kinds of backgrounds; a definite asset for anyone looking to write for a living.
Amidst all of this, I was also raising a family, whilst at the same time working towards a BA (Hons) in Women's Studies. The latter being something that finally encouraged me to take my writing aspirations more seriously and as such, I then went on to obtain a MA in Television & Radio Scriptwriting. Fortunately, this led to my being chosen by the BBC for their New Writers' Initiative - a break that culminated in the opportunity to work on their continuous drama series, Doctors.
Even so, this still didn't stop me continuing to dabble in the world of prose - a genre I, personally, feel more comfortable with. And testing the waters with a bit of poetry and a few short stories, I was lucky enough to garner a modicum of success through publication, allowing me the confidence to put a future in scriptwriting to one side, in favour of a career as a full-time novelist.
