About the Author

The Sheppey Writers are a group of friends with a love of writing and literature. Unusually we take an interest in all aspects of writing from writing short stories, flash fiction as it's known today to publishing full length novels. This has extended into publishing for themselves and others. They still like to gather for a drink or two to chat though with the enthusiasm they share, it often leads into a new venture.
