About the Author:
I live in a modern house in a riverside village called Wivenhoe. It's a big change from the many years I spent in a rural paradise in an ancient cottage. However I still have my ancient husband and Border Collie, Zoe, for company. I was born in the Isle of Man, in Ramsey, but have never been back to visit. Perhaps one day. I spent my first four years in Berkshire where I developed my lifelong love of horses by spending time with our bad-tempered Shetland pony. We then moved to St John's Wood, London, where we remained until I was eleven. We moved to Wivenhoe -and I married and had my children baptised at the lovely Norman church in this village. We have come full circle. It's wonderful to have a train and buses on the doorstep and shops within walking distance. Also I have friends and family still living here. I am a full time writer of historical novels set in either WW2. the Regency or the Victorian era.
