About Me
I have no idea what to say here! About me... Well, I grew up in London, which is where I think of as "home", I suppose, but I've lived all over. I have a degree in English, which is about as useful as a chocolate teapot. So after my degree I had no clue what to do with myself. I knew I wanted to be a writer (like every English graduate), but I had no idea how to make that happen. So in the meantime I did a whole bunch of other things! And now I work as a Freelance Writer!
Type of Writer
Freelance professional, which I suppose means it's my occupation. I get paid for it.
Writing Style
Footloose and fancy free... Or something. As a freelancer I write different things. For myself, mostly fantasy fiction.
Interests
I suppose my main interest is writing. I love to read, which is sort of a prerequisite for a writer. I watch TV and movies. I love music. I do yoga. I like to walk and travel, and when I'm not travelling I dream about travelling...
Favorite Genres
Fantasy, sci-fri, crime, romance
Favorite Books
Too many to mention. Pride & Prejudice, Sense & Sensibility, Wuthering Heights, North & South, Dracula, The Godfather, the His Dark Materials trilogy...
Favorite Authors
In no particular order: Jane Austen, Emily Bronte, Shakespeare, Kathy Reichs, Tasha Alexander, David Dalglish, Dickens, Ann McCaffrey... Again, too many to mention!
Favorite Poets
Emily Dickenson, Shakespeare, Sylvia Plath, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Keats, Wordsworth, John Betjeman, Coleridge...
Favorite Quote
I've dreamt in my life dreams that have stayed with me ever after, and changed my ideas: they've gone through and through me, like wine through water, and altered the color of my mind - Emily Bronte
Favorite Music
Mostly rock and metal...
Favorite Movies
Anything cheesy and bad, pretty much.
Favorite Shows
Loads of them! Star Trek (I'm a big ol' Trekkie!), House, Friends, Sex & The City, Frasier, Big Bang Theory, CSI, NCIS...
