Born in 1945 brought up in Barnham in Sussex in England, with loads of dogs, trees, space, sea and all that kind of wonderful English stuff.
- Educated for far too long at Oxford University (A BA degree in Geography) later at Leicester University (A diploma in Social Work) and much later at The University of Hertfordshire (A Diploma in Counselling.)
-
- I married many years ago, so I'm getting used to it now. I have two sons, who are of course absolutely wonderful, and live in the beautiful city of St Albans in Hertfordshire.
-
- I love theatre, gardening, walking, being with people and having long conversations - not necessarily in that order. I love to write as well, which helps, in the circumstances. I do poetry, prose, fiction and non -fiction. I seem to write mainly non-fiction at the moment, but I have a novel up my sleeve......

- My bibliography is here if you want to see it.
-
- I talk a lot - even to the cat - and play endlessly on my beautiful new imac computer.
-
- And that's quite enough about me.
