About this author

Though I was born in the South of England - my parents moved back to the North when I was one year old, and I have lived in Yorkshire ever since. I spent a few years as an infant teacher, but when my children were young I started making picture books for them and became hooked on writing. I love drawing and painting, but my main love is writing, often using the legends and history around me as inspiration.

Breathing Lessons by Anne Tyler
The Traitors' Pit by V.M. Whitworth
I loved THE BONE THIEF - the novel that introduced Wulfgar, the sub-deacon and found this second novel, just as involving. I’m fascinated by the small details of the time and period around 900 AD, and deeply impressed by V M Whitworth’s knowledge, ho...more

The Song of Heledd
by Judith Arnopp (Goodreads Author)
The Song Of Heledd - a beautiful lament of a story!

I was so pleased to discover another novel set in the time period that I’m fascinated by - AD 600’s and was at once gripped - hearing the names of background characters that I’ve written about - Osw...more
All Fall Down by Sally Nicholls
I've been very impressed by this book. The main character Isabel is a strong young woman, who loves to make and mend things - she's very practical and makes mistakes, but I found her quite compelling. This is in some ways a harrowing story about a gr...more
Thursdays in the Park by Hilary Boyd
Jeanie meets a man in the park, when she's out with her delightful grandaughter and a new an interesting friendship develops between them. I've seen this described as 'granlit' and there is romance, but it's very gentle, which suited me. I'm not sure...more
The Bone Thief by V.M. Whitworth
I’ve just finished reading this book and enjoyed it so much that I slowed down towards the end, as I felt that I didn’t want to leave the world of Wulfgar behind. It is so rare to find a novel set in 900 A.D. The front cover says ‘an unlikely hero’ -...more

“Gentleman Jim [dog] was cheerful enough, partly because his owner was so well trained... He had alsot trained him to get up when he didn't want to, simply by climbing slowly and painfully on top of him and squeezing all the breath out of him as he slept. On the occasions this didn't work and Gordon seemed to be simply lapsing into a coma, Gentleman Jim would unroll his massive tongue, containing over a half a pint of drool, and dribble it slowly into his ear until Gordon finally awoke...”
Livi Michael, City of Dogs

“He's a gentle soul,' he told her. 'I can't see him put down, he wouldn't hurt a fly.' Indeed Boris wouldn't hurt a fly because in general flies were too fast for him.”
Livi Michael

“He couldn't wait to get home from school, to play with Jenny 'till bedtime, when she went to sleep on his bed and both of them dreamed wonderful dreams all night, about a boy with a face like the sun and a small white dog gleaming like a star through the early-morning mist"
