Originally from South West England – I am now settled (with my wonderful dog Millie) on the edge of the beautiful Lake District National Park. My writing, like my life, reflects some deep inner shifts – and I find great inspiration from being near the mountains, walking in the woods, or breathing in the sea air. With a background in facilitating personal development courses through adventurous experiences, I also enjoy leading groups across England on the Coast to Coast long-distance walking route. Recently designated a national trail, this stunning route is the main setting of my novel-in-progress, and showcases the amazing scenery and wildlife which can be found.
