Karen Guyler

Always being the new girl (at nine schools on two continents) was no fun at all so books became the only constant in Karen Guyler life, even if they didn't help her get out of sports days. Now settled in Milton Keynes, England, she juggles reading with writing, her children, and husband, a much nicer mix! On mostly sunny days she'll be trying to cajole her gorgeous dog out for a walk though has had to abandon the idea of dictating while walking because all the 'sit', 'stay', 'don't do that', 'wait', 'come back' played havoc with the characters' lives.

She also teaches creative writing for Adult Education with lots of laughing in amongst the word wrangling and discovery - hers is usually the noisiest class...
