edit data

I trained as an English teacher, but the planned storyline drifted off-track. I landed in an office, producing management statistics – a different kind of fiction. I have been writing for many years, with quite a few mainstream genre novels and short stories published while I was still working full time. I gained a Creative Writing Masters (hons), and have been a novel-writing tutor since lessons were sent by snail mail and the nearest thing to a mobile phone beamed Captain Kirk onto the Enterprise. I live in rural South West Ireland, play Irish music in pubs for tourists, drive a camper the same age as me, and self-publish standalone novels with multiple viewpoints and complex characters.

A stunning debut. A beautiful, well-written book suited to children from 9 to 90. Lots of very real factual information about bees and bee-keeping, added to a touch of futuristic/sci-fi/magic. It was a real pleasure to read, deserving of being in boo ...more
