Sally grew up in Tynemouth in the North East of England and worked for many years at the coal face of financial marketing in London and Newcastle. Eventually she made a break for freedom, married a Northumbrian farmer and threw away all her high heels and handbags for welly boots and waterproofs. Sally now runs a 150 acre farm with pigs, sheep and ponies, alongside her husband and two children, whilst the farm buildings play host to a brewery, wedding venue and glamping site. Sally spends a lot of time mucking out sheep pens, chatting to farm visitors, chasing lambs and piglets and trying very hard to find the time to sit down and write.
