Diny is an author and poet who has recently relocated from the South coast, to the North of England with her husband, daughters, and a diva-ish, rescued German Shepherd dog.

Freen was her first teen/YA novel and she is still working on the follow-up, called Ba: The Second Planet.

During the day, she manages an international, health-outcome database, is an advocate for freedom of choice and body autonomy, and in her spare time, she mentors creative writing groups, is studying to become a homeopath, enjoys looking at people's blood (as a live blood analyst) and practices journalling. She is only able to do all of this, because she has finally finished home educating her three daughters - who are now independent young women.

Sometimes at night, she puts on her stealth gear and becomes a paranormal/UFO investigator (which is a challenge because she is scared of the dark). She loves to cook (and especially eat) and will turn up anywhere that involves gluten-free cake. She adores ghost stories and is obsessed with alien conspiracy theories but, easily distracted by anything sparkly.
