Annie May

Annie says she’s never had a proper job.  In spite of this, or perhaps because of it, she’s had a very varied and interesting working life.  Cosmopolitan in her outlook she was born in Egypt, brought up in the Far East and educated in Hampshire, the Isle of Wight and Switzerland. At the moment she’s a retired Classicist, but she’s run a dog grooming business; worked as a researcher for the European Commission; been a Personal Development Trainer, although she still isn’t sure what that is!  She’s run a Youth theatre group and Puppet workshop and worked as a market research assistant.   Over the last twenty years she has lectured in Classics and farmed with husband Geoff.  She now writes, gardens, reads, is part of a textile recycling group, is a staunch supporter of Transition Towns; and lunches and dines with friends as often as she can afford it.
