I’m a New England and Jersey Girl, a graduate of Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts, and a divorce lawyer in Hartford, Connecticut. Tell Me When It Hurts was my first novel and The Rage of Plum Blossoms was my second. My latest is Hemingway's Daughter and I am excited to have readers enjoy and comment on it. Hemingway had 3 sons but always wanted a daughter. The book is about Finn's yearning to be a trial lawyer, and her hope to fall in love despite her belief that the family has a love curse on it,, and her dream to impact her father's writing--all of which feel impossible .
Alll three books can be read literally as good stories but the general theme of all is how we struggle to regain purchase when so much is pressing us every day -

I’m a Liverpool born writer, with a story to tell, I started writing when I was very young, I used a school rough book and made stories up, penning them down and as I got older I decided to actually take it serious. I’ve a good friend who motivates me and tells me where I’m going right or wrong, a hobby I’ve had is now a physical thing. A revue is always welcome and if you leave a contact email I'll always try and get back to you it makes it all worth the effort of writing the books in the first place.
