Táto autorka pristupuje k písaniu s hlbokým porozumením pre jazyk a zvuk, inšpirovaná svojou láskou k detským rýmovačkám a atletike. Jej cesta k literatúre viedla cez žurnalistiku a rozsiahle cestovanie, ktoré obohatilo jej pohľad na svet. Po rokoch práce ako rozprávačka a učiteľka dramatického umenia sa venovala magisterskému štúdiu tvorivého písania, čo vyústilo do jej literárneho debutu. Jej diela často čerpajú z prírody, mora a tajomstiev škótskej krajiny, a odrážajú jej životné skúsenosti a vášeň pre rozprávanie príbehov.
