Born in 1955, I grew up in Baildon, West Yorkshire, where I attended the Salt Grammar School.
In 1975, I married Andy and moved to Ndola, Zambia for two years, then in 1978, after a brief spell back in the UK, we moved to Sharjah in the United Arab Emirates, where our first child, Peter, was born the following year. Pete was diagnosed with Down’s syndrome and we returned to West Yorkshire in 1981.Our daughter, Hannah, was born in 1984.
I trained as a florist at Shipley College but had to give up my job after Pete left full-time education. Reading and writing have always been pastimes I enjoyed and I now have more time to devote to both.
Andy and I moved to North Yorkshire in 1995; our son lives in sheltered accommodation in Bradford and our daughter lives in London.
