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.

A full nights sleep...please

It's getting to the point where I cannot remember the last time I slept through the night.  What with feeling unwell, kids having bad dreams and the cats, I am starting to flag.  Last night I was up and down about three times, in the end I almost gave up on sleep in favour of the ironing pile.  Ironing isn't my favourite pass time so I opted to try for a bit more sleep.

It is Hubby's birthday today and he treated us all to a Chinese for tea which went down well with everybody.  I am sworn to secrecy on his age, but I will tell you it starts with a 3 !

I am pleased with my finalised 100 word flash fiction piece and I am thinking of expanding into a short story.  I think it has potential and very romantic, usually I don't do romance but there is something there screaming to be played with.
