• An early encounter with a trebuchet spurred a life-long obsession with castles and sieges
• As a child I wanted to be a ballerina-explorer (I saw no contradiction)
• As a teenager I wanted to be an archaeologist
• Most of all I wanted to be a writer, because I live for stories, little or big
• I inspect old tombstones for interesting names
• My current works-in-progress include a novel set in 19th century Rome and one set in 17th century England
• My interests also include playwriting, screenwriting and photography
• I enjoy exploring the countryside with my spaniel, he helps me dig up artefacts
• I’m a proud member of the Historical Novel Society
