About Me
Hi! Thanks for visiting my website, and a very warm welcome to you. This is where I showcase my favourite creations, and keep an occasionally-updated blog about things to do with reading and writing. You can also find me on GoodReads and DeviantArt, where I document all of my reading and writing respectively.
- 'ThornyEnglishRose is a lovely and refreshingly original storywriter - her style is capturing and carrying, so that even the shortest work from her will always end in me reading it more than once.' DeviantArt's Vigilo: http://fav.me/d4ied12
- 'Rosey's gallery is quite stunning: with a wide range of different themes from historical fiction to Flash Fiction to fixed form poetry and children's literature, you're sure to find something worth your time there. She writes with the skill and patience of someone who knows how much each word counts, and how to carry you swiftly through a story right to the end.'
