Growing up in the wilds of Alston Moor, Charity discovered a love of nature, reading, and writing at an early age. She studied English language and creative writing with the Open University where she met a group of other women writers with whom she has recently published a collection of short stories. She's now studying for a MA in creative writing and, although she's made her home more recently in Scotland, her ties are still on the moor, as is part of her heart.
