About

Planting a copy of the book on top of Askival, the highest mountain on Rum.

I am a writer of mainly fiction and drama, an experienced teacher/trainer/workshop leader and an effective speaker.

I was born in Kathmandu, brought up in Nepal, India and Pakistan, and went to university in Australia to train in education. My writing has won awards and been published in anthologies, magazines and newspapers. Also a playwright, my fiction and drama have been broadcast on Radio Scotland and Radio 4.  A House Called Askival is my first novel. Having returned to live and work in Nepal for four years I now live in the Highlands of Scotland.
