My writing spark was ignited when I was short listed in a BBC competition, “End of Story.” (2004). This resulted in a trip to London and a couple of minutes T.V coverage on BBC 3, which gave me the impetus I needed to continue. I wrote more short stories, joined a writing group and entered more competitions. When in 2007 the first three chapters of the original Memory of Wood, were long-listed by Cinnamon Press, the idea that the Memory of Wood could become a novel was set. That was published back in 2011. I’m now working on a fourth book. It’s in first draft stage so a long way to go!
