Born in England, Di started her working life as a librarian. Like her characters, she loves her family and friends, beautiful shoes, anything sparkly, the 'occasional' drink, parties, and a good belly laugh. She's addicted to shopping, chocolate, bubble baths and trash TV. Di now lives in a lovingly renovated farmhouse in middle earth with her Great Danes Dolce and Gabbana, and their two cats Charlie and Jamie. The dogs keep her fit and exercised, scare the burglars away, sit loyally by her side throughout late night writing sessions, and hang on her every word when she reads final drafts aloud. The cats hang out by themselves and ignore Di and the dogs. Di loves her life, but not so much that there's not room to live a load of other lives, through the hearts and minds of her characters, all of whom she adores, and some of whom she's fortunate enough to call friends.
