The small girl was excited.

The shape of the birthday gift suggested that it might be a new book. And it was!

Years later, now as a woman in my eighties, a new book still brings joy. Attempts to write my own stories began as a child and I discovered the joy of trying to use words to paint a picture and tell a story.

It was many years before I gained the confidence to put ‘Writer’ in the space marked ‘Occupation’ on forms. Since my first published book in 1972, I have produced another ten published books, nineteen chapters in other published books, a Master’s thesis in 1996, plus a range of articles, academic conference papers, studies, liturgical material and private family histories.

This site contains both published and unpublished works. They are in broad groups: Books (and book chapters); Histories (church and family) and Worship Resources (prayers, reflections and more).
