It was the seaside town of Filey where Toni came of age and found work herself in a nursing home for children. It was there were Toni found her love for telling stories, and it was her fellow nurses who encouraged her to write them down.
With no prior experience, she found putting her thoughts onto paper challenging, but ultimately rewarding. Her son offered to word process her first completed manuscript, and publish it on the internet for the world to read. “I don’t know what I’d do with one of those e-books,” Toni once said, “but if people want to use one to read my stories, then I’m happy they exist!”
Toni now lives in Devon with her husband, three children and two Jack Russel Terriers, who she takes on regular walks (her dogs, not her children!).view less
