Catherine Lockwood
I was born a long time ago and have led an extremely colourful life. I started writing just eight years ago for a laugh and a bit of therapy to boot. It eventually turned into a book. My second is a pyschoerotica tale of love, madness and death - very dark... Some of it is based on fact ~ mwahahaha! I am now working on a horrid gangster novel, an alternative history and and Sci-Fi. I also write a bit of poetry.
