I am a Surrey-based writer with a weakness for absurd situations, sharp dialogue, and characters who are in way over their heads.

When not writing, I can be found balancing the equally treacherous waters of corporate life and family life.
I live in a small village in Surrey, where the rain provides excellent atmosphere for brooding over plot points and the theatre scene provides endless inspiration.
