II'm a UK girl and have been writing for approximately two years. I also love to sing and did that as a profession for 15 years. However even though I still enjoy singing now my real passion in life is writing. After suffering a head injury, which caused me to lose my sense of smell and taste, (Anosmia), writing became a way of venting my frustration and anger from this life changing condition. It became a way of escaping form the reality of it too. I started to love writing especially when I discovered how much satisfaction I got from it. This led me to the realisation that I wanted to become a writer so now have almost finished writing a short storybook of prose, still at the illustration stage. I have also started on my first novel in the fantasy genre, and have just completed a fantasy writing diploma.  Not surprisingly in that case, I have an obsession with dragons and collect dragon paraphernalia. I'm also planning on having a dragon tattoo to cover up my old tatty faded one!
I enjoy horse riding and growing chilli peppers, the hotter the better! I also try to practice mindfulness when I can sit still for long enough!
