WELCOME TO MY WEBSITE!

I have always been a writer. It is the one constant in my life as I rattled around the globe, living in three different countries, marrying twice and raising three children - one of ehich was my granddaughter. But you will see that over the years, the way I have written has changed...

In England, I stuck to fact, training as a journalist on The Times after getting a history degree at Cambridge University.
Then I drove across the world to Australia with my first husband and family, and began writing books, plays and films

Then Penn State flew me to the USA where I worked as a professor and administrator, writing in my spare time.

Overlanders Book

Fallout is my latest play about Major Eatherly, the Hiroshma pilot who gained world fame as criminal, madman and nuclear activist.

His story is timely and thought provoking. The Bulletin of Atomic Scientists has just re-set the Doomsday clock at 90 seconds to midnight - the closest we have ever been to nuclear annihilation.

Fallout had a successful trial run from March 30-31 2022 at The State Theatre, in State College, PA. It now seeks a full production.

Further  information and videos are on this website (click Fallout at the top of this page)
