As a writer and editor, I have enjoyed many years meeting and interviewing many fascinating people, and visiting wonderful locations worldwide.
These days I also indulge my passion for books, reading, and writing by interviewing authors, hosting events and sharing my reviews and recommendations.
For more than 10 years I co-hosted a book club on air for BBC Radio Suffolk with the afternoon presenter, Lesley Dolphin. You can listen again to our conversations by following the link below.
In 2008 I launched an open book club for leading independent Browsers Bookshop in Woodbridge and we have been meeting each month ever since.
I also have the pleasure of chairing and organising author talks for children and adults at events and festivals thoughout the year.
Past events with Browsers Bookshop in Woodbridge include Alexander McCall Smith, Margaret Drabble, Victoria Hislop, Griff Rhys Jones, Kate Mosse, Deborah Moggach, Maggie O'Farrell, Michael Morpurgo, Robert Peston, Kate Humble, Alan Johnson MP, Max Hastings.
I've interviewed Simon Mayo for the First Light Festival, Melissa Harrison for The Cut Halesworth, Louise Doughty for Felixstowe Book Festival, Barbara Erskine for Suffolk Libraries, and many more.
Each week I compile an e-newsletter offering book news, author events, my reviews and recommendations. If you'd like to receive it, please click here.
Thank you for reading

For more than 10 years, each month I have joined Lesley Dolphin on the afternoon programme at BBC Radio Suffolk to talk about books. In the feature called Lesley's Readers, I selected a title for an 'on air' book club, inviting listeners to read along and send in their comments by text or email. You can listen to past discussions
