I live in the rural outbacks of Northumberland UK, and work from home. My children have grown up and the grandchildren are doing well. I love art and music, fresh air and children, working with young people and reading. Plus many other things, such as photography and, um, Angry Birds! My imagination runs overtime – and so that is why (probably) I have always written and drawn and designed and composed. I first had a Spectrum home computer and then a Sinclair QL, after which it has been easy to become an IT-literate 21st century person. In the outbacks that’s been pretty useful.
