The writer
I'm a Scottish writer from the Central Belt. I write about ordinary people making the wrong choice for completely understandable reasons, loving people they probably shouldn't, trying their best even when their best is a bit of a disaster.
I love Scotland and firmly believe there is no better place to be than here, curled up by the fire with a book that'll hurt your heart.
I'm currently working on my third novel and it is going absolutely fine.
I also use em and en dashes despite not being a robot.
As a reader
I struggle to push through the sometimes tedious introductions of romance novels. We all know what we're here for, let's stop messing about.
My books are full of real people who know what to do, trying to figure out how to do it. No misunderstandings a text could solve. No happy endings promised.
Just ordinary people, choosing badly, loving boldly, trying their best.
