I began writing The Four Loves of Professor Waldman after a health scare forced me to reassess what really matters. It was, in many ways, a wake-up call — the kind that makes you stop, take stock, and ask difficult questions about how you’re living your life.
I live on the south coast of England with my husband and work in Adult Social Care for my local authority. Every day, I hear stories of people adapting to life-changing circumstances — finding ways to carry on after loss, illness or unexpected change. Those experiences have shaped my interest in the quiet resilience of ordinary lives.
The Four Loves of Professor Waldman is my debut novel. At its heart is a man whose carefully ordered life is disrupted by a violent assault, and the relationships, losses and second chances that force him to reconsider how he wants to live.
I have also long been fascinated by the study of anatomy. After attending Anatomy: A Matter of Life and Death at the National Museum of Scotland, I learned that I could donate my own body for medical education and have since registered my intention through the London Anatomy Office.
I’m drawn to stories about ordinary people facing extraordinary circumstances — stories of love and loss, friendship and forgiveness, and the choices we make when life doesn’t turn out quite as we expected. But I’m equally interested in the humour, affection and everyday moments that make those lives worth living.
