All my life I have enjoyed murder and thriller novels. James Patterson is my idol. I have researched methods of murder and criminology and I am currently undertaking a psychology degree. The plan is to be a counsellor but my love of criminology may take me further down that road.
I have reached a point in my life where it isn't enough to read these books, I needed to write one so I put pen to paper and before I knew it I had a beginning a plot and an ending. I had the immediate attention and support of my work colleagues and they kept me going through the development of the plot. Ann, Gareth, another Ann and Andy all read my book as it developed and Andy helped with the title. I owe them a mention.
I am currently living and working in Germany, I have four children, who are my life, two boys and two girls, Ash my eldest is a chef, Julie-Anne is a nurse in the Army, Daniel works for NAAFI and my youngest daughter Katherine is at school and is my biggest critic, not only of my writing but fashion and hairstyles!
I enjoy dinghy sailing and horse riding and obviously reading. My proudest moment aside from having my children will be without a doubt seeing my book in print.
