About Barbara
Before I became a writer, I was a teacher. I guess that's why I enjoy visiting schools and meeting up with my readers. Writing for children is great fun. I love to write funny books (my series of stories about Damain Drooth, the hopeless boy detective is my favourite) and I really enjoy writing thrillers for older children.
