About me

"I think that feeling is why I write fantasy and because you can introduce things that don’t have to be real, reality can be rewritten, if only for the length of a book."

I live in the south of England, luckily enough near the sea. My family and the scenery here are the inspiration for some of my characters and stories.I started writing whilst I was working in a school library but I now write full time - except looking after my family, of course!

This takes lots of cups of tea, and sometimes chocolate. Most of my books are for teenagers and young adults. I like having a fantasy element to my stories because it allows you to use your imagination, but also because I am a big kid at heart.
