The basic stuff
Hello! I write children's fiction of all shapes and sizes, and run workshops for children and adults. I am represented by the heroic Bryony Woods of Diamond Kahn & Woods Literary Agency.
The extra stuff (informational icing)I grew up in Redhill, England, where I spent an entire childhood reading fiction, dreaming up stories and Pretending. I then tried very hard to get to grips with the real world by studying politics and going in to social science research. This was a shock. Thankfully, I discovered improvised comedy at university, which allowed me to carry on making up stories for at least 30% of my waking hours.
Now I write my stories down, and I use my background in improv to run writing workshops that focus on creativity and generating ideas. I still perform comedy, and I am one half of musical duo The Peablossom Cabaret. |
