WGM Atlantic

I'm delighted to say that the launch of my fiction for adults is represented by literary agent Nicky Lovick at WGM Atlantic in London. Exciting projects on the horizon for 2024!

I'm delighted to have been asked to judge entries for a children's poetry competition, launched by Sussex Cancer Fund. Budding poets aged between 6 and 16, from across the region, sent inspiring submissions. The winners are now published in an anthology. Proceeds from the sale will help the charity. A big well done to all those who entered!
