Main Content

Welcome to my website!

I work as a Freelance Writer and Children’s Author from home. I am lucky enough to have an assistant – our gorgeous Norwegian Forest Cat, Kissa!

However, work comes between her regular cat naps, eating her favourite treats and generally watching life go by sitting by my laptop and looking out into the garden.

I will be blogging regularly about writing, nature, life in general – and of course Kissa! Oh, and I love taking photographs of anything and everything that catches my imagination.

I hope you enjoy your visit.

Lockdown

The days go right up to the edges
No gaps
No release
No breathing space

Day after day
Night after night

Load the dishwasher
Unload the dishwasher
Feed the cat
Put out the bins

Zoom, zoom, zoom
Walk, walk,walk

But the heart still beats
At the thought of it.
