Welcome to my website.

I live in the English Lake District with a collection of cats, dogs and a husband. Until recently I worked for the University of Cumbria but now write freelance. I have won prizes in several literary competitions, including The Benjamin Franklin House 2009 Literary Prize, in association with The Daily Telegraph. Many of my stories have been published in popular magazines including The People's Friend, The Weekly News, Space and Time and The New Writer.

My first novel Middlewitch was published in ebook format by Drollerie Press and can be downloaded via this link - or at Amazon Kindle, MobipocketFictionwise and most other online bookstores. The sequel, Middlewitch Mayhem, is due to be released later in 2010.   Read an excerpt from Middlewitch here.

My mini-mystery, A Quiet Place in the Country, has just been published by Wild Child Publishing and is also available from Amazon Kindle, Mobipocket, Fictionwise and other online bookstores.

Feel free to browse my website, read stories and excerpts, look at my photo album, contact me with any enquiries or contribute to my blog.
