Captivity and Escape

About the author

Writing has been part of her life for as long as she can remember. On her author website, she says she has written poetry along with historical and modern romance, and that she developed these interests alongside work and amateur photography.

She also shares that she was born in Singapore while her father was serving in the army, and that her family later settled in a coastal town in Kent. That background helps explain the mix of personal history, place, and curiosity that runs through her writing and blog.

In addition to fiction, she writes online about books, films, history, food, health, and other interests. The result is an author profile that feels warm and wide-ranging, shaped by a longtime love of reading, writing, and observing the world.
