Diny is a self-published author and poet who lives in the South East 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 a creative writing group, 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 investigator (which is a challenge because she is scared of the dark). She loves to cook (and eat) and will turn up anywhere that involves gluten-free cake. She loves ghost stories and is obsessed with alien conspiracy theories but, easily distracted by anything sparkly.
