I'm a 35 year old married mum of one. I 'm currently on a creative writing course one evening a week at my local community centre and even though Im really enjoying it, I'm finding it hard to find the confidence to write.

I've had a pretty full and interesting life, I've experienced a great deal - I had an extremely priviledged upbringing with a father who was a high profile, colourful captain of industry who battled and still battles drug addiction. My parents divorced when I was young, my mum went on and became very sucessful in her own right, going back to college and taking her A'Levels all the way to gaining a distinction in a masters degree and is now a top physchotherapist. I travelled the world as a small child, I've experienced the high life, the low life, addiction myself, lost a stepfather to cancer, a 32 year old friend to cancer, my 24 year old cousin to cancer, a boyfriend who hung himself, 2 marriages myself, 3 more marriages between my parents, my father on life support......it goes on!!

So I do have plenty of life experiences on which I can base my stories and this is what Im going to attempt to do

I'm sure I'll be rubbish to start with and would appreciate any constructive critisicm

Thanks for taking the time to read my little profile ;-)
