Following early success in a road safety essay competition at primary school (prize awarded by a clown - enough to put anyone off!), I had poetry published in the Gilberd's school magazine. At sixteen I joined a poetry society in what was then a flourishing adult education sector. Fast forward through bringing up four children to recent years when I have found a balance between working in education and writing.

I am a Creative Writing tutor for the National Extension College.
