A little about me...

To begin with, I thought I’d start off by telling you a bit about myself and how I ended up writing for S&S. Like most of you, I’ve been fascinated by all things spiritual since I was a little girl and would literally spend every day after school sitting in Woolworths scouring the magazines for anything relating to the supernatural. By the time I was 13, I was utterly hooked and would often spend hours, if not whole days, sitting by an open fire, with a cup of steaming hot cocoa and some freshly baked biscuits, listening to my aunt Margaret talking about the supernatural world and all the amazing experiences she’d had.
Of course, by this time, I’d already decided I wanted to be a writer and, after completing my degree and embarking on what seemed like a never-ending stream of work placements, including one where I was sent to buy someone a banana in the pouring rain – yes, really! – I finally got what I thought was my dream job working on a glossy London magazine. Unfortunately, I soon realised that writing about celebrities, and what they’d eaten for breakfast , wasn’t really for me, and applied for a job at Aceville, the company that publishes S&S, six months later. After working on four of the company’s other titles for several years, I was delighted when the deputy position on S&S became available, and jumped at the chance to write for my favourite magazine and the rest, as they say, is history. I’ve now been working on it for just over a year and can honestly say I’ve never felt happier or more at peace with myself than I do now, and literally can’t wait to get into the office each morning.
However, like many of you, I’m just beginning my spiritual journey and, while I’ve already made a lot of positive changes in my life over the past year, I’m still very much at the start of my personal journey; where it’ll take me, I don’t know; but I guess that’s the great thing about life: you never know what’s around the corner; so please join me, as I embark on this magical adventure, and seek to change myself, and the world, for the better.
