About Me: I am very lucky to be living my dream, as ever since I was a little girl I have lived for stories and have wanted to be a writer. After many years of rejection, setbacks, being as poor as a church mouse and general suffering for my art! - I am now a writer. I can honestly say that I have gone through the initiation and grit determination to realize my dream - as nothing else could come near to the feeling of fulfillment that belonging to a story can bring.
I am married to artist, Neil Geddes-Ward and we have two children. We live on the remote Scottish island of Westray, Orkney where we run Orkney. Faerie Museum & Gallery
Music: The Medieaval Baebes, Massive Attack - Mezzanine, Llewelyn and Juliana, anything from the 1920's - 30's. So many more...
Movies: Green Card, Pride and Prejudice, Henry and June, Memoirs of a Geisha, The Da Vinci Code, Carey Grant movies and any black and white films.
TV: Charmed, Desperate Housewives, Sex and the City, The Worst Witch, Blue Peter, Brothers & Sisters, Skins, any cookery programmes.
Books: A Spy in the House of Love by Anais Nin, Sexus by Henry Miller, The Harry Potter Series, Northern Lights by Phillip Pullman, Artemis Fowl series by Eoin Colfer, The Da Vinci Code, Angels & Demons by Dan Brown, Fairie-Ality by Ellwand, Tithe by Holly Black, books by Jeanette Winterson and too many other books to mention.
Likes: Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate...cake of any description. Icelandic horses and Shetland poinies. Sitting by a roaring hot stove when it is pelting it down with rain outside. Earl Grey Tea, snow in large quantities, stories, FAERIES, being with my friends, cosy story times curled up on the sofa with my two children, taking big risks with absolutely no safety net, hot baths, Saturday nights, riding my horse along a deserted beach, my Nan's chocolate cake, the feeling of being creative and knowing that it is a kind of freedom, angels, the 1930's, magic, living by the sea, anything sparkly or glittery, banana and peanut butter sandwiches, soul mates, the sound of horses munching hay, a cat's purr, being at home, hearing my children giggle uncontrollably, hugs, any baby animals, a cat on my lap, shoes, BBC Radio 4, tap dancing, being a writer.
Dislikes: Daddy-Long-Legs, spiders, stress, getting up in the morning, banks, too much reality in one day.
Hobbies: Spending time with my horses and riding, knitting and baking cakes! My favourite at the moment are blueberry muffins.
Vices: I winge a lot! I am over critical of myself and sometimes others too. Chocolate. I am a worrier, recluse and I am over sensitive. Loads more...too many to mention. I will do anything to avoid confrontation.
Virtues: You decide...
Heroes: Anias Nin, Jeanette Winterson, Madonna, Aimee Butler, Betty Boop, Princess Diana.
