She writes gritty, true-to-era, historical fiction and her stories are not for the faint of heart. A fascination with historical events and a love of fiction blends together to create her books. Sarah loves crime, gangster stories and historical fiction.
After a childhood with her head in any book she could lay her hands on and crafting her own short stories, she didn't follow a career in writing. She started work in an office as a secretary and then studied hairdressing and became a qualified hairdresser. She gained a CELTA qualification to teach English as a foreign language in 2018 and, on occasion, teaches foreign language students. Sarah chose at 49 to apply to go to the Arts University Bournemouth and graduated with a BA in Creative Writing in 2021. An MA followed and she graduated from Bournemouth University in 2022 with an MA in Creative Writing and Publishing and her debut novel, To Find a Penny was born. Sarah is now returning to Bournemouth University to study for her PhD and lives in Dorset with her husband and daughter. vizualizați mai puține
