  <about><![CDATA[I've always loved reading and writing and all I ever wanted to be was an author. Being accepted by my agent, and then having a publishing contract with Pan Macmillan was the best and most exciting thing that's ever happened to me professionally. Before that, I worked in a range of jobs, had three beautiful sons and read thousands of books. I love my family, friends, animals, walking in the country, drawing, evening classes, Italy, wine,music, reading and writing. We live just outside Bristol, which is an amazing and beautiful city. The Love of My Life is my first book. It was longlisted for both the Romantic Novel of the Year Award and the Waverton Good Read Award. My second book is due for publication in January 2010.]]></about>  <influences><![CDATA[Everyone I've ever known, every book I've ever read, Desiderata.]]></influences>  <gender>female</gender>  <hometown>Sheffield</hometown>  <born_at>01/01/2001</born_at>
