I have always had a fascination with fantasy novels, and when I started writing I loved creating worlds. No one read my work. Five years ago I decided to publish a story I wrote for my son, and now I love it when people enjoy what I write. I was born in New Zealand, lived a lot of my adult life in England, then when my son was a baby we moved to Sydney, Australia. I share a house with with my husband, our son, our dog Trouble and an over-active kitten called Lola. When I am not writing I love reading, walking the dog, craft activities and good movies. One day I am sure I will grow up, but hopefully not too soon, and when I do I would like to be exactly what I am now, and what I have always dreamed I would be—a writer.
