Mandi Martin

Since childhood I have had a fair few problems, mainly mental health issues, so writing is an outlet for me.

I'm not ashamed of these 'problems' as I do not feel I should be. They are just a part of me and always will be.

I have always said that if my work makes one person think and gives them enjoyment then I have succeeded!

I live in the UK and spend my time between Birmingham and the Isle of Wight, the latter is where I get much of my inspiration.

I share my home with my mother, who is my biggest inspiration, two cats and a cross between a man and an ape, my brother.
