In Brief • Personal: Wife, Mother, Grandmother, Book Lover, Housework Hater. • Professional: Copywriter. Business Blaster, Author, Speaker. • Default Setting: Mild Hysteria. Bit More When my children were small, I wrote features and fiction for various national magazines, was a columnist for Mother & Baby and set up a home-based business supplying children’s party goods. I also decided to train as an ante-natal teacher. I thought all was going well until the husband said if he opened one more cupboard and had several packs of Mr Men plates land on his head, he was leaving! Tough choice - but I opted for the husband and opened a shop, possibly the only one where impatient customers were told to breathe in short pants and not push. When I sold the shop, I set up a booking and planning service, for off-the-beaten-track trips, to New England, USA. With the growth of the service, to make information easily available, I published an annual guide which ran until I sold the business to a FTSE 100 company. I went on to dip a toe into the vintage world with antique children’s books and vintage postcards. Problem was that once started, I couldn’t stop and spent lots of time ferreting in cobwebbed attics or scraping the bottoms of boxes in garage sales. That was how the Vintage Ladies books came about. Currently, I run a copywriting consultancy, write fiction and features, have blogged for The Telegraph Online, written four Paranormal Thrillers and four Business Books (taking care not to mix up the last two!)
