Hi and welcome to Talking Books - my regular radio show devoted to the written word in all its forms. I interview authors, poets, features writers, editors etc and anyone who supports their work. I am a  writer, researcher, proofreader and editor, published in national publications on the subjects of health (focusing on mental health), women's issues and social history. My book, 'Shell Shocked Britain: The First World War's legacy...' was published by Pen & Sword Books in 2014 and I have since written two more - Death Disease and Dissection and John Keats: Poetry, Life and Landscapes all for P&S. I am currently working on another commission due out in 2026, this time about Harriet Martineau. In my spare time I dabble in fiction and have just completed my first cosy mystery. I have been hosting the 10Radio.org Talking Books show for 10 years now.
