Alison Sherlock enjoyed reading and writing stories from an early age. However, she assumed that being an author didn't count as a proper job so when Alison grew up, she worked as a secretary, training administrator and answered an IT Hotline.
Once older and a bit wiser, she realised that she really had to write her novel. So she gave up office life to sit at home and panic at what she had done. To fund her dream, Alison became a cleaner, the experience of which she has used for her second novel, The Desperate Wife's Survival Plan.
A chance meeting with a literary agent at Winchester Writers' Conference set her on the road to publication with her first book, The Desperate Bride's Diet Club.
Alison lives in Surrey with her husband and a daft golden retriever.
