About the Author

A pensioner of the moors, the author lives quietly on Dartmoor’s wild and whispering edge  a place where mist and myth weave their patient threads through each unfolding day. Her cottage and geodesic dome stand as beacons of simplicity and self-sufficiency, warmed by wood, nourished by garden, and surrounded by the eternal rhythm of the land. Here, she listens to the stories told by rain on slate and wind through gorse, living in conversation with silence and the turning light.

Throughout her life, she has been a doodler a maker of small spirals, threads, and symbols that give form to what words could not say. Those humble marks became a language of their own: a geometry of becoming, a meditation on pattern and presence. From those sketches  and from decades of walking among the tors and clouds  her writing has emerged, blending observation and imagination, story and philosophy.

Her books for children are full of wonder: tales that dance between the seen and unseen, the real and the imagined. Yet beneath their playful surface lie deeper harmonies  reflections on time, belonging, memory, and the subtle music that hums within all things. Her adult writing grows from the same soil, offering stories not merely to entertain, but to awaken recognition the quiet realisation that transformation often hides in ordinary moments.

Her constant companion, Zelda the spaniel, reminds her daily that joy is a form of wisdom. Together they wander the moor, gathering fragments of myth and morning, always returning home with muddy paws and clear eyes.

Rooted in mysticism, hermeneutic thought, and an earthy spirituality, her work celebrates the art of attention  the slow

noticing that reveals everything as connected. For those who read with an open heart and a listening spirit, her words offer an

invitation: to step beyond explanation and into meaning, to see that what is ordinary is already divine.
