Bio:
I live in Hertfordshire in the UK and am a writer.

My writing room is stuffed with over a thousand books and tumbling piles of notebooks, every surface is dotted with coloured post-it notes, reminders of ideas for stories or books, and all of this shares space with numerous demi-johns full of fermenting home-made wine – and a cat named Poe.

I have written nearly a hundred short stories and many of them have been published or have won prizes in competitions. I write crime, horror, literary, supernatural, historical and contemporary.

Helped by a grant from Arts Council England, I have completed a murder/mystery novel. 'Fathoming Shadows' is set partly in Cornwall in the 1830s and partly in Cornwall and London in 2007. I am seeking representation for this book.

I'm currently working on a book set in the fascinating underworld of Victorian London - hence some of the books on my wishlist.
