Children's Author

It probably makes sense then that I am also a children’s author as I am so passionate about stories.

Ever since I was a young child, I enjoyed writing stories, poems and songs.My earliest creation that I remember is a poem I wrote about my Nanna’s Dog called Kip. I must have been under 10. The touching part to this is that when she died I found that she had saved it with all my other creatiions in a box under her bed.

However, it was only when I had children and started taking them to the library and reading books to them, I realised then that I wanted my stories out there too.

My stories flutter into my mind from anywhere, a dream, a scent on the breeze, an image I saw online or a half-heard conversation on the train. Sometimes I just start with a line and see what happens as I write so I never plot the stories. I just write and hope for the best.
