I was also born in Birmingham — in my humble opinion the greatest city in the world with the nicest people too.
I used to live in London — a great city too. But a bit on the pricey side.
I also used to live in Manchester — another great city (although technically I lived in Salford which is next door but that’s sort of splitting hairs).
Before I went to university I wanted to be a social worker — I have no idea why. It didn’t last long.
After I left university I wanted to write for the NME — I’ve always loved music but it was only when I went to uni that it started loving me back. I can’t play any instruments or sing so writing about music seemed to make sense.

Hello,
Buy books on Amazon
I admit to being a bit nervous about Goodreads because of some cryptic reviews I've read. As an indie author with a fair following, I do my best to publish clearly written books with minimal errors. We are all human, however. I truly appreciate readers pointing out errors to me. I will fix them.
My background is a couple of degrees in English and enough credits for a masters in rehabilitation counseling. The last is compliments of the State of Florida. I retired as a CRC (Certified Rehab Counselor). Prior to this I worked as a single parent counselor in two states. I also taught for five years and sold real estate for eight. I'm older than sin. -

Under the guise of discussions about last wills and last breaths and visits to cemeteries and crematoriums, Norma teaches her students to find grace in one another.
