About Me:

Shirley 2.jpeg

I am a writer for film/ theatre and radio as well as having published seven novels: YA, MG, psychological thrillers, cosy crime, and romance. I teach screenwriting and theatre at three American universities in London as well as working freelance for a series of production companies. I also run my own small production company and am a BBC-registered supplier—producing work for Radio Four and local radio. Over the years, I’ve won awards for my film, theatre, and prose. My BA is in literature and philosophy, an MA is in Aesthetics and I am currently studying for a PhD in Graham Greene and adaptation. I love stories of all kinds, shapes and sizes. My passion is reading books, watching films and taking long walks.
