Novelist. Born in Lancashire, qualified in Architectural Glass at Swansea College of Art. Had a Welsh grandmother, and after many years of puzzling over which part of her is Welsh, has come to the conclusion it’s her writing arm. A member of the Society of Authors and a committee member of the Romantic Novelists’ Association, her first published novels were historical but she now writers contemporary romantic black comedy for Piatkus. She has recently set up a Chapter of the Romantic Novelists’ Association in north Wales with fourteen other writers.
