She even has a 'Leaning Tower of Paperbacks'.Rose is a dreamer, preferring a simple & quiet life. Often spending time alone, although never lonely, being ever surrounded by great characters when lost in a good book.Working as a school librarian, and sharing her love of books with children, was the best job she ever had. However, life moves on and another chapter was only a page turn away. Now working in an entirely different library, in Hereford's Wye Valley NHS Trust Hospital, Rose spends her day cleaning and issuing 'Medical Equipment'.For Rose writing is a hobby, she is more a Read-a-holic. However, after winning FIRST PRIZE in a short story competition with 'The Magic of Grandfather Christmas' featured in 'Seasonal, Sweet & Suspenseful' she is inspired to transform the story into books for the young and the young at heart. Her children's books are often written as stories in verse with a general theme of friendship, caring and sharing with a touch of fantasy & magic. Rose has a little sidekick called Miss Ruby Heart a ruby red King Charles spaniel from the Grandfather Time Series. She features on the covers of 'Young Ebenezer' and is the Ghost of Christmas Past. She also has her own social media websites @MissRubyHeart1 I am an illustrator with extensive experience.
