Well helloooo!

I'm a writer, writing mainly for children. I've won awards, honest! I've also been shortlisted for numerous awards, such as the inaugural LOLLIES in 2016, the Times / Chicken House Prize, and the Greenhouse Funny Prize. Bla Bla Bla... all the info you could possibly want, (and possibly don't), is here.
