Writing....

I was 1992 runner-up of Cosmo's New Writer of the Year - the article they published was totally fictious - it was about living as a girly student in a house of blokes (real life I was married with a two year old and expecting my second child - who actually dropped into the world, six weeks before my second years exams!)
I then got myself a Literary Agent, and usual story never quite made it - well when I look back, it was a novel about a girl who had to resort to working as a phone line worker who fell in love with Clive the hunchback dwarf who ran this perverted underground world but on realising her daughter would not get the life she deserved - she burnt the building down, destroying the sex-line industry and Clive! Who dies in the blaze... (erm......)
I got my agent at the same time as Martina Cole (Darley Anderson), she made it - I didn't - teaching kind of got in the way, in a lovely way of course!
