Apart from writing humorous family poetry, Anne had little writing experience. She won awards for two short stories at U3A and joined a creative writing group with Fin Ross who suggested her students enter a Scarlet Stiletto short story competition. She was fortunate to win two categories with her story Out of the Dark in 2011. One of these prizes was a mentorship at Olvar Wood Writers Retreat and these inspired her to write two young adult stories and an illustrated children’s book. Recently Anne has been dealing with sickness in her family and writing has been put on the back burner for a while. She hopes to return to it soon.
