You may remember the beautiful Lauren Bacall? Well I am nothing like her. If I was a superhero my USP would be reaching for things on the top shelf. If good looks and grace are not mine, what I do have are great friends, wonderful family and a thick skin. |
I've only just started writing in the last year and I love it! All I have written so far is YA Fiction. |
My aim (not always successful) is to write in as concise and direct style as possible. |
Walking/reading/the outdoors/food/open fires/my dogs and my husband...not always in that order. |
Don't have one...should I? |
As above. I've only recently mastered facebook. |
I help with the village panto, but I don't think you mean that. |
