About me
Educated to masters level, with English, Legal and Historical Research qualifications, after 15 years working in London, I moved out to rural Warwickshire, a county just dripping with historical juice and myriad opportunities to write and research. I am currently researching a novel about Lucius Carey, 2nd Viscount Falkland and his creation of the Great Tew Circle in 1630s.
