I am an Englishwoman currently living in Bulgaria. While living in England, I spent eleven years as a child protection social worker, the last three of which were as a manager. I learned a lot about the human race from doing this work. I think this has helped me to add believability to the characters in my books.
I enjoy reading anything with compelling stories.
In my spare time, I also like to walk in the Bulgarian countryside, and go ten-pin bowling with my husband.

Lisette Brodey Hi Sandy:

It's so very nice to meet another fellow author. I am really touched that you liked reading my memoir of Ground Zero. It was an experience I shall never forget and it means a lot every time I am able to share with even one person. THANK YOU!

Happy Reading & Writing,

Lisette
