My Story
Honest tales of my mental-health issues and misadventures on horseback, as an adult returning to riding, began as a blog on Facebook during lockdown. My aim was to bring some light entertainment to people suffering from the gloom of isolation at that time. I wanted to demonstrate how we can triumph even when we feel horrendous.
My stories gained so many positive comments from online readers which snowballed into countless private messages, each person describing how my writing lifted their spirits and made them feel happy and empowered. At a time when they needed someone reliable to cheer them up, they were very grateful to have my Facebook page to visit. It was very moving!
This then grew into a wonderful, supportive community where my readers became my friends and requests poured in to turn the blog into a book.
After 20 rejections from literary agents, I took the plunge to self-publish and was stunned that The Yard – How A Horse Healed My Heart, sold out and became a best-seller on the first day of release.
I am now very thrilled to be able to welcome you to my website and show you all of my books in the hope that they will bring positivity and joy into your life.
My horsey books appeal to fans of James Herriot, Gerald Durrell and Bill Bryson. They have been described as ‘hilarious, heart-warming yet also deeply moving’.
My sheepy books, which were launched on Channel 5’s The Yorkshire Vet, appeal to both young and old and are reminiscent of yester-year classics such as Winnie the Pooh, Peter Rabbit and Wind in the Willows. Deeply meaningful yet adventurous tales to help empower young minds and instil them with confidence and self-worth. They are also illustrated with beautiful and immersive, watercolours.
