I am UK born and bred of Anglo Indian origins holding a lifetime desire for word conjuring. An ex English/Drama teacher with an OU. BA. (Hons), specialising in Creative Writing. I have one self-published novel plus several online successes with both flash and short stories. At present I am Literary Editor for ‘Shorts’ magazine. I have taught writing groups until they all got so good that I made myself redundant. Enjoy politics, teach yoga, adore the theatre, literature and film. I have one husband, three children and am greedily collecting beautiful grandchildren whilst living in a most lovely Devon village where life is very good indeed.
