Beryl was born in the north of England. Over the years she spent a lot of time in Australia, New Zealand and America. Although Beryl Lowe wrote the first draft of her novel "Maggie's Secret" more than twenty years before, she never thought of transcribing the manuscript from its handwritten form until into her late seventies. She found a new passion for writing with the Paphos Writers Group in Cyprus where she lives. There followed a sequel "Susie's Secret" just over a year later. Now at the age of Eighty-three, she has completed, the final part of the Blue Sky saga, "Lizzie's Secret". To her fellow Octogenarians Beryl says, "If I can do it so can you. Why not have a go, it is so rewarding." She still rights on.
