I'm from a small town in the North West of England but have travelled and lived in loads of different places for the last 15 or so years. I currently live in sunny Las Vegas, Nevada and I love it here. The USA has so many beautiful and inspiring places to explore which is great inspiration for a curious writer like me.

I love being outdoors; whether that's on a beach, by a lake, hiking, in a forest, or just in my garden. I love cats and animals, learning and discovering new things and places and most of travel. My bucket list of places to visit stems from a beautiful book - Lonely Planet's top 500 worldwide.

My creative interests are mainly writing poetry and photography and I like to combine the two in my work. I also like writing biographical non fiction, and I have a couple of pieces of such work on the go at the moment.

This is the very start of my author journey so website and more social media links to follow along with lots of writing :D

Looking forward to interacting with you all and reading some great work.
