Meet the Host, AnnMarie

For as long as she can remember, AnnMarie wanted to write a book. Fifteen years ago, during a challenging time, she put metaphorical pen to paper as a means of therapy, a safe space, somewhere to document my thoughts – and that day she wrote 6,000 words. Those thoughts eventually became the first of five complete novels, two of which she successfully self-published in 2017 and 2018. The journey wasn’t easy, far from it, but studying with the Writers’ Bureau, attending several online courses and writing retreats has led her to have her work featured in magazines such as Woman’s Own and Wiltshire Life. Seeing her own writing out there gave AnnMarie the desire to help others .

She set up begin a book in November 2020 and now supports others on the same journey as herself. Some will have nothing more than an idea; others may have a completed draft, but it doesn’t matter. The key is in empowering anyone who has ever wanted to see their name on the cover of a book and helping them to realise that dream.
