Michaela is an avid gardener, artist, dog and nature lover, up-cycler, reader, and aspiring writer. She is also a wife of nearly 30 years and mother to four adult sons. She has also had careers in nursing, I.T., and more recently over the last 17 years, in English secondary school teaching. Michaela's love of literature over the ages has now led her to writing stories rather than reading and teaching them. She does her best writing in the morning fuelled by tea, after a good welly stomp in the Cornish air with her own (usually) well behaved dog.
