Hi There!
I've always loved writing, and I was delighted in March 2009 when my first novel, The Fire in Your Eyes, was published, tackling the subject of bipolar affective disorder (otherwise known as manic depression). I've had two novels published since then: Legacy of Lies is the sequel to The Fire in Your Eyes and Wading the Waters of My Mind tackles the issue of schizoaffective disorder.
I've recently completed my degree with the Open University here in England, which has covered subjects such as the English Language, Creative Writing, History, Literature and Music. I've also gained a Diploma in Creative Writing with the Open University.
My main fields of interest in writing are mental health and the English Language, although I love to tackle new subjects. I like to be learning new things all the time!
In 2009, I launched Words of Distinction, offering proofreading, editing, and synopsis writing services for authors, and copywriting and blog writing services for people who struggle with words.
