Profile Information

Hometown:
CORFE CASTLE - DORSET, ENGLAND
About Me and My Book:
42 years old and with 2 teenage daughters and an award winning Elizabethan Manor House Hotel in rural Dorset. A TV celebrity described me as BASIL FAWLTY from FAWLTY TOWERS (sitcom 1975-79). That was my inspiration to tell a no holds barred comedy version of my life in the hospitality industry, guests, staff, chefs and of course SYBIL who is an essential cog in the works.

Inn Keeping with Mr Fawlty came out in England in mid-Jan 2008 and is available through the hotel, Amazon, Ingrams and Bookmarket. It is rated as 5 stars with Amazon in the UK. I had to rush the book out because the Manor was 'under offer' (to be bought)....then the offer fell through which prompted book two.

I have just finished the follow up which is based on the same theme, KEEPING INN with BASIL. We get about one bookworthy event a month...you just can't get the guests these days!

Am I in the write place ?

Hello Ladles and Jellyspoons.

I stumbled across BMN when commenting on a book cover and decided to join.

I wrote my first (demand) book Inn Keeping with Mr Fawlty which is an anecdotal humorous memoir of my time in the hotel / hospitality trade. The book has sold well in the UK and has had some success in the States. I am told that Americans love Fawlty Towers on which the book is based.

I have just finished my first draft of the follow up book on the same theme to be called KeepingContinue

Are you on Facebook and LinkedIn?

I would like to connect with you there also. I am trying to make more friends and fans so that I can spread awareness for breast cancer during pregnancy. I was diagnosed Stage 3 in the 5th month of my pregnancy in May. My status updates on Facebook and LinkedIn are usually about my fight.

Scribblers’ Retreat is a non-profit organization established with the goal of reaching writers of all ages; to inspire and promote their hidden gifts and talents.
By involving the local community, authors, publishers, editors, journalists and all forms of the literary world, we are opening their minds and bringing hope where there was doubt.
Scribblers’ Retreat is not the typical classroom setting. It was designed to bring world-class authors, literature professors, editors, journalists, illustrators, photo journalists, proofreaders, publishers, publicists, screenplay writers, and website/graphic designers, etc. one-on-one with young and old alike. It is the opportunity of a lifetime for someone who has had a manuscript in a desk drawer for 40 years or who has an outstanding poem that simply must be read.
