About Me

As a former nurse with a bachelor's degree in psychology & sociology, I have a keen interest in what makes people tick (and what makes them furious.)My indignation at how society often treats women in midlife fuels my writing. We will not 'stay in our lanes'!When I'm not at home in the beautiful Norfolk countryside, I can often be found sneaking off to Italy with my husband in at attempt to consume my own body weight in pizza. (If it kills me, at least I'll die happy.)

My Book

My debut novel is currently in final edits, but here's a little taster...'After their vibrant best friend Babs dies, four grieving, 'invisible' middle-aged women discover she's left them one final gift: a year-long list of monthly dares designed to detonate their beige lives and force them, kicking and screaming, back into the chaos of living.'It’s a joyful exploration of grief, friendship and the quiet indignities of ageing, but also a story for any woman who’s ever felt invisible or been told to act her age. A reminder that you're never too old to make a scene, and that the best way to honour the dead is to live loudly, unashamedly, and fabulously.The perfect read for fans of Marian Keyes, Jojo Moyes or Clare Pooley - although there may be a few more expletives!Follow my socials to be the first to hear updates about Babs & Co.
