About Me

I’m a first-time author at 60, which just goes to show it’s never too late to begin something new.

I’ve been married to my husband Scott for 31 years, and together we raised two wonderful daughters, Elle and Alice, who have now both flown the nest (a season that inspired more feelings than I ever expected!). Our home is still lively though, thanks to our three dogs — golden retrievers Ralph and Reg, and our Lhasa Apso, Betty, who very much runs the household.

Before writing, I spent 20 years working in dentistry as an Operations Director, a career that taught me a lot about people, resilience, and the stories we all carry quietly. These days, I split my time between our homes in Sussex and Northamptonshire, writing, walking dogs, and learning to slow down a little more than I used to.

I love reading and walking with my dogs but writing has become a way for me to reflect, heal, and hopefully help others feel a little less alone. I’m so glad you’re here.!
