Recent trip to Egypt - jane finch
After 25 years working in Family Law I decided on a career break and have not looked back. Being a homemaker has enabled me to home educate my son and to explore my writing in ways I had not imagined. I thought being a writer meant writing novels. Now I realise I can write about anything and everything that interests me.
I have a published children's novel and am working on a second. My first novel was published in the UK in 1998 and has recently been taken on by a US agent. I write community news for a couple of regional newspapers and have had a few articles published. I have also written some scripts for animation.
I am also a children's book reviewer for www.best-childrens-books.com
