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.

It's Done

After a hectic few days my revised, edited and sometimes enough to drive you mad story for the choc-lit competition is finished and completed.  It has been a rough ride but I have enjoyed it.  In all my years of writing this story is the one I have spent the most time on.  A lesson there I think!!  I am hesitant to attempt to tot up just how much time and I'm just glad it is complete and I feel it is the best it can be.  Strange feeling, a feeling I hope to have a lot more.

No news from TABFF but then it is early days yet.  I have a couple of stories on the back burner and I'm very tempted to try my luck with the Australian market.  Thanks to two very kind ladies I now have a wealth of examples of the type of stories they publish in 'That Life Fast Fiction'.  I Know other British writers have had success across the water so why not me?
