About Me

My photo
A fiction writer and mum to three great kids, also lucky enough to be married to the man of my dreams. In spite of that mushy comment I do not write flowery romance - I like a nice helping of real life grit in my work. I have a Diploma in Literature & Creative Writing from The Open University and remain a member of the wonderful Watford Writers, despite moving on several times. I am a big fan of Swanwick Writers Summer School which has taught me a great deal and where I have made many great friends. I have yet to reach the dizzy heights of becoming a published superstar but will continue to send my work out into the world.

Fuming Friday

Daughter no.2 (age 9)  has an after school club on a Friday but today it was cancelled.  She asked the school to ring home and let me know but they told her there was no need because they had sent a text.  Needless to say I still have no text from them.  Luckily for me, two friends Lisa and Lesley took charge of daughter no.2 and phoned me to let me know.  How angry was I?  So relieved that Lesley had called me and Lisa walked said daughter home for me.  I will have more than a few words to say to the headteacher on Monday morning. 

On a brighter note I have got heaps of writing done and made a short list of which competitions I might try my luck with. 

Just about to settle down and watch 'The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe' with daughter no.2 as we often do on a Friday.
