Hi all

In short, I love stories.

I write thrillers, murder mysteries & domestic noir. Two of my thrillers are coming out this year through Bloodhound Books.

I'm also proud to have been selected for this year's prestigious Escalator Award, for a cosy crime thriller I'm writing.

I'm lucky enough to teach screenwriting and theatre at two universities in London and work for The Literary Consultancy as a script consultant.

I've written literary short stories for Radio4, been shortlisted for Granta, and had work in anthologies, winning awards for my theatre & screenplays.
