Hi, I'm Karen and I'm thrilled to be a part of tall tales & short stories blog.
I've been writing on and off since the age of 11 when I first discovered the power of stories, thanks to Roald Dahl and his masterpiece, Witches.
It wasn't until my late 20s that I decided to take my hobby that one step further and try my hand at becoming a published 'author'. Of course, I'm still on that journey, but it's a journey that is full of twists and turns and gripping beginning...
I write fantasy realism for ages 11 and over; my latest, A Tale of Magic, Mischief & Mayhem gained an Honorary Mention in the Undiscovered Voices 2010 Competition.
My short story, Who's afraid of The Nightmare Monster was shortlisted for The Academy of Children's Writers Competition 2010.
