WRITER
For 12 years she worked for "Country Artists" as editor, and main contributor to their company magazine and advertising book. Her first book, "Dancing with Ospreys", a limited edition short story, was illustrated by Keith Brockie and was written after several years of monitoring a pair of ospreys in Perthshire.
Always having been involved with farming and having a passion for native farm livestock, and a particular interest in sheep, she produced a second book, "RURAL PORTRAITS - Scotland's Native Farm Animals, Characters & Landscapes", also illustrated by Keith Brockie. She hopes that this book will raise awareness to the importance of the survival of native breeds, and of course those involved with them. See the next page for more on Rural Portraits.
