My debut novel, Garden of Her Heart, is published by UCLan Publishing and is available to purchase now. Reviews - mainly 4 and 5 stars - are universally describing it as a hug in a book, and a perfect holiday read.

I am now working on book 2, a stand alone sequel to Garden of Her Heart, and on a non-fiction book to help you be your own book coach. More news on both of these books will follow in the autumn.

I started the Write, Damn It! Podcast to help myself when I struggled with my writing after being made redundant from an NHS job I loved, and here we are, over 100 episodes later, and listeners regularly tell me how listening in helps their writing. 

Many writers request to be on the podcast, so I mainly focus on contacts from publicists. But don't let that put you off from getting in touch - please don't be offended if I say no. There's only so much I can do for free.

Currently workshops are held at The Atkinson in Southport and at Cedar Farm Gallery in Mawdesley, Lancashire. 

I run workshops on writing, putting yourself out there as an author, imposter syndrome, and writing neurodiverse characters. 

I also deliver workshops for writing festivals, such as the London Festival of Writing 2024.

Let's work together - you can work with me in the following ways:

• 1-2-1 coaching for your writing or mindset
• Panel facilitation at events
• Author interviewer at events
• Expert adviser on writing about mental health and neurodiversity
