I am a writer, but I've done a lot of other things - nursing, midwifery and gardening. I am married with two children - now grown. I met my husband in the Himalayas where our friends contrived to bring us together - an arranged marriage despite the fact that we are both English and neither were looking for a partner. We've just been on a total immession French course - awlful for the first two days, but recommended after that. I write about many subjects, but religion and cookery seem to work best for me. I also write quizzes - the fun kind and the more difficult. I really enjoy the hard stuff and have recently sold quizzes on subjects as diverse as deep sea fishes and Britney Spears.
