About Me

Hello, my name is Fi. I work as a copywriter and a playwright. Originally from York, I now live in North Wales with my family and a pooch called Bailey.

For many years, I worked as a secretary/administrator/PA within a whole range of industries but it never felt right. I had the skills. I had the experience. I presented myself in a smart and efficient manner. The problem was that my heart just wasn't in it.

From being a child, I had always wanted to be a writer. I wrote throughout most of my childhood, my teens (boyfriends were a slight distraction), and into my adult years. I wrote novels, short stories, poems and plays. I pestered my parents with my writing, sought praise from my English teachers and dreamt of a life of creative debauchery (although admittedly, the debauchery was mainly of the red wine and silk pyjamas variety).

For over two decades, I ran a business called Murdering The Text, penning murder mystery scripts for amateur dramatic groups, schools and other fundraisers. Although that business entity is now extinct, I still sell my murderous scribblings to those in the know.

In 2017, I added the role of freelance copywriter to my skillset, producing copy and content for emails, YouTube, blogs, magazines and websites.

The genre I love to write is fantasy. I have a completed fantasy novel for 8-12 year olds called Haven Wakes which is currently doing the rounds of literary agents and publishers, with plans for further novels in the same series. I'm also working on an adult novel set in the same magical world.

I consider myself to be one of the luckiest people alive, writing every day and being paid for it too. Long may it continue.
