Sheryl Lee

I'm an Australian author currently living in Egypt. I love to read and write, obviously or I wouldn't be an author!
I write across a few genres - women's fiction, short reads about cats and paranormal fiction.
I love cats, which is why I write about them and here in Egypt there are many street cats. I feed the street cats around my apartment building every day, and love the peaceful time I spend with them every afternoon.
I love to draw too, but have very little artistic talent. So I draw patterns and shapes, kind of like zentangle but with my own twist to it.
A lot of writers will tell you they are fueled by coffee, but for me it's tea. Earl Grey, Lady Grey, English Breakfast, Green tea, any tea really. And chocolate.
