About the Author

I am a writer of stories, poetry and songs and I have create a large amount of writings over the years, and now I am seeking to have them published and recently I was told of your publishing house that specialise in people as myself. In 1999 I had to stop work because of health reasons and from then on my health has worsened, for I was a college lecture and specialised in communications. My mother was in the mental health system for forty years and I, my younger sister and brother were fostered in the 1960s. Also until I was sixteen I could not read and only found out when I went to university in my thirties as a mature student that I was dyslexic. I have poems going back to when I was sixteen years old, and songs I have written over the past ten years plus many short stories I have wrote over the last twenty years, plus I had three of my plays preformed in the 1980s. I have an Honours Degree Social Science and PGCE and besides teaching, I have worked a telephonist, receptionist, crafts tutor for ILEA, wardrobe assistant in theatre and TV, plus I did a craft programme for the BBC called Handmade in the 1980s.
