About the Author

I suppose you could say that I've always loved writing, I used to write a lot when I was a little girl and my mother used to always say that I had the most weirdest imagination. If and When you read my sample chapters you will probably understand why. My biggest influence would probably be my husband to push me to get out and give things a go, I always had a bad self esteem in life and I think that if I can really achieve this in life it will really help me. I have two beautiful girls and I am writing in my spear time and late at night. They are the biggest joy in my life so if I don't become anything I know one thing I've always achieved and that's being a mother. Almost losing my life when my second daughter was born has made me look at life in a knew perspective, and stand back and see the world in slow motion. If only people can see what's happening around them in everyday situations life would be not a very happy place. So when you ask why I became a writer I look back on my family and realise that they are the ones that have pushed me to get out there and give things ago. I hope this doesn't sound to dramatic, thanking you Sherraleagh Ryan.
