She was born in Chepstow (in South Wales) in 1965.
Her favourite subjects at school were English and foreign languages. She wrote her first book when she was five. It was about a rabbit and his friends. But nobody took her hobby seriously. When she grew up, she went to university to study French, and later became a secretary. It didntaskt take her long to understand that the job was not for her. During boring meetings the young secretary thought about interesting plots for her stories and wasntaskt able to concentrate on her work.
When she was 26, she left her job and moved to Portugal to teach English there. But she never forgot her hobby. Sometimes she worked in the evenings, so she had enough time to write her books during the day. In Portugal she met her future husband and they got married. In 1993 her daughter was born. Soon after that she and her Portuguese husband got divorced and she returned to the UK.
She and her daughter Jessica lived in a one-bedroom flat in Edinburgh. One of her friends lent her some money to help her, however, she was unemployed and money was still a big problem. At that time she was writing a book, looking after her daughter, taking care of their little flat and studying to be an English teacher. The flat where they lived was often cold because she couldntaskt pay for heating, so she used to take her daughter and go to different cafes in the city. It was warm there and she could write while her daughter was asleep next to her.
In 1997 she sold her first book to a publisher, who bought it for $4,000.
