If you are not confident with writing or struggle to express your ideas in words, I can help. As a former journalist, I have experience of writing about a broad range of subjects. I have written about such diverse topics as renewable energy, historical figures, collectables, careers, sport, health and wellbeing, travel, film and literature as well as covering parenting and human interest stories.
I have a particular interest in real life stories, and have helped many individuals to write and publish their autobiographies and memoirs. In 2023, I co-wrote and published Tea For Jean with my sister, a book about our experiences with the UK adult social care system in respect of our mother.
In addition, I have researched and compiled quiz content for several well-known publishers and retail companies and am co-founder of Light Bulb Quizzes, currently publishing the Supernatural Quiz Book series.
In 2012, I set up WoSWI Writing Group (now Phoenix Writing Group) to encourage women to explore their creativity through different genres of writing. To date, the group has published four anthologies; Better Than Biscuits, A Book for All Seasons, Write on the Coast and the award-winning Ten Minute Tales, the proceeds of which are being donated to charity. I have also achieved personal success in writing competitions including first place in Writing Magazine’s 2017 Crime competition for my story Number Seven, which you can read here.

• Autobiography and Memoir
• Blurbs and sunopses
• Author biographies
• Articles and web content
