Tell us all about you and your writing!!
Once upon a time I was a singer songwriter, but since having kids I foiund that writing stories fits in better with my lifestyle. Now I’m addicted to novel writing and generally have 2 or 3 projects on the go. I’ve published 3 titles so far:
Hidden (Marchwood Vampire Series #1)
Thicker Than Blood (Marchwood Vampire Series #2)
Outside – a post apocalyptic novel (Outside Series #1)
