I grew up in York where I spent most of my teenage years wandering around the city looking for a handsome Roman or Viking to sweep me off my feet. Inspired by this I studied Classics, History and English to A-level then read History and Art History at university before venturing into the world of teaching. These days I hold down jobs as a teacher and mum.

When I'm not writing, I spend a lot of my spare time reading and have become something of a pro at cooking one-handed while holding a book! I'm less successful at vacuuming ditto and would like to publically apologise to my husband for the dust.

Aside from writing, my hobbies include skiing, Arabic dance, fencing and exploring dreadful tourist attractions, none of which has made it into a story yet. I love historical fiction and have a fondness for dark haired, bearded heroes. I live in Cheshire, UK with my husband, two young children and two cats with ridiculous names.

Taming the Dragon by slashedkaze reviews
Asher is a pyromaniac. José is blind. Neither of them know how they got into this strange world or how they got these powers, but together they might find their way home. And maybe something else along the way. M/M Slash

The text for a children's picture book. No illustrations included obviously. Hamish knows he shouldn't flush his socks down the toilet, but watching them swirl away is just too much fun. However, when he flushes Mum's Best Birthday Watch away he has no choice but to go after it and find it before the alligators do.

The River Horse reviews
When Nigel the hippopotamus hears himself called a river horse he sets off to find his true family. This should be a picture book so you'll have to imagine the illustrations of a slightly cross-eyed hippo baby.
