Tell us about yourself.:
I'm a married mum of one who lives in Surrey, just outside London in the UK. I used to make short indie films and started to write short stories and longer fiction around seven years ago. I've always been obsessed with thrillers, true crime and horror stories, especially those that have an unreliable narrator.
Where did you grow up, and how did this influence your writing?:
I grew up in a northern town in the UK. It shows itself in my characters – they are kind are hard, edgy, use a bit of language. It's what I was surrounded by where I was raised.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Just fitting it in whenever I can – I work full time in a day job so writing is done in the gaps between everything else!

Do you have any advice for new authors?
Read as much as you can in the genre you are writing in. Also read books on how to plot for pace, how to create rounded characters and how to create mood with setting. Reading is as important as writing.
