About Me


I edited my profile at MySpaceSupport.com , check out these Myspace Layouts !

I'm the mother of triplets, manage my own publishing company, Accent Press and live in a lovely old school, at the top of a valley, in Wales. Previously I've been a jeweller, worked on cruise ships, in the Duty Free industry and run an organic wine business. I've lived in the US, Indonesia, Middle East and France. I guess it was time to settle down! Life is busier than ever running our own company but it's also enormous fun - I finally seem to have grown up and found out what I want to be when I'm older :) Please visit our website www.accentpress.co.uk for more info about our company - thanks
