- About me
- I am homeschooled - my anxiety issues restricted me from attending school so my fully qualified teacher mother took up my education. Hey. I turned out a novelist.
I write of romance, fictional reality and the pain of being a woman...the men, the friends, the family. About how being different can make you strong, and tired, and amazing. A mish-mash melting pot of literary condradictions. My debut novel, 'Something for Nothing' shall be completed in or about winter 2012. The final editorial process shall last until around late spring 2013, perhaps earlier if I am lucky.
I am a semi-professional author, and am working to study for a BA (hons) as soon as I can.

So, here I am. Sitting, one leg crossed over the other, casting occasional glances behind me at the rock wall.
It used to be a church, but for some reason they (don't ask me to specify 'they' - Lord only knows) converted the main part of the building into a rock wall and christened it a climbing centre.
Now, I'm sat before a table in the balcony cafe, where exhausted climbers or spectators can come to get a glimpse at the action.
There's plently of muscular women on the walls...
