About the Author

Hi, I live in London and have a thing about fluffy cats. I work as a freelance layout sub-editor on business magazines and editor/proofreader on books. I love reading, writing, films, the sea, art, animals, nature, rock music, Milky Bar and travelling. In 2011, I self-published the following books: Kaleidoscope (March) - 119 poems, divided by chapter themes; Travelling Light - a free book of 38 poems; Kiwi in Cat City - the first in a series about a magical cat and her human pals (April); Kiwi and the Missing Magic (June); Kiwi and the Living Nightmare (October). The Kiwi books have illustrations by Nikki McBroom. Books published in 2012, so far: Day of the Living Pizza - a comedy horror for ages 10 up (May); Life's Rhythms - a collection of 316 haiku (June); 3 Heads and a Tail - a romantic comedy with walkies, written for NaNoWriMo (June); Kiwi and the Serpent of the Isle (August); Day of the Pesky Shadow - book 2 in the Smarts & Dewdrop Mysteries series (October); and Kiwi in the Realm of Ra (November).
