I was still at school when my first story was accepted for publication. This was so exciting and I was over the moon when at last I received a copy of Collins 1966 Children’s Annual with my tale of a magic sandcastle there inside. Wow! I had done it, achieved my childhood ambition to be an author … However, it would be another twenty years or so before my next story emerged in print.

I kept beavering away, had some tales read aloud on the BBC’s Listen with Mother – and now, I am lucky enough to have nearly 500 works published – for both children and adults. Mind you, there are still hundreds more stories buzzing around in my head so watch this space!!
