I live in Cumbria, in a large industrial town called Barrow-in-Furness. Ship building is at its heart, and because of its location on the coast as well as on the foothills of The Lakes. I studied science at college and specialised in it for my Bachelor's teaching degree, but my heart has always been tied up with books and reading. I walked away from a long teaching career because I wanted to write. Writing is a therapy, as much as walking in nature is, to me. I am married to a photographer and have two children- a thirty-eight-year-old daughter, and a twenty-year-old son, who is still at home with us. I am a passionate advocate for local communities- Barrow has a deep Victorian heritage and a Cistercian Abbey- and I have studied these in depth for my own interest and within my teaching career. Barrow people are community driven and welcoming, and their character is unique in so many ways. I want to capture all of this in the books I write. I’ve now got a master’s degree in Creative Writing, and have embarked on a post graduate diploma in regional and local history. I have four novels published with Bloodhound Books: Seaview House; The Cottage; Blackthorn Wood; Chapel Field.
