I am a divorced mum of two adult sons and nana to two lovely grandchildren living in Staffordshire in the UK. I began writing seriously when I contracted M.E. in '95 after having to resign from my job as learning support assistant in a mainstream high school because I was too ill to continue. M.E. also called chronic fatigue syndrome is a debilitating, little understood illness, which destroys lives. Writing has kept me sane through the loneliness and isolation which are one of the results of this illness.I have written six novels and two memoirs and have tried the traditional route to publication, then came the opportunity to publish with www.feedaread.com an Arts Council funded site so I went ahead and published everything I've written with them. All are available in paperback from FeedARead and also in ebook format from Amazon. Visit my website www.sherrielowe.co.uk and you can also follow me on twitter@SherrieLowe2
