    Táto autorka objavila svoje spisovateľské povolanie náhodou, keď po narodení prvej dcéry hľadala spôsob, ako si udržať duševnú stimuláciu. Hoci pôvodne študovala vedu a obchod a pracovala v rôznych priemyselných odvetviach, prvý kontakt s písaním prózy jej pripadal ako nájdenie svojho životného osudu. Jej literárna cesta sa začala ako spôsob, ako vyplniť čas medzi rodičovskými povinnosťami, ale rýchlo sa premenila na celoživotnú vášeň. Týmto nečakaným zvratom sa zrodila autorka, ktorá nachádza hlboké uspokojenie v umení tvorenia príbehov.
