Introduction	Independent digital fiction publisher, counsellor, psychotherapist, grandmother, novelist with 7 novels published in the past. I've also written books for children illustrated by my husband Peter Barrett. It is now harder than ever to get published. In 2010 I created a website for writers to reach the readers who will appreciate their work. WritersReadersDirect is now part of Magus Digital, producing ebooks and inviting submissions. I retain a position as writer's mentor.
