It is this experience and her own passion for literature which gave her a love of storytelling.
Suffering a mental breakdown in 2017, Verity was forced to stop working.
In her own words “The long working hours stopped and suddenly my creative brain had room to think.”
Verity began using writing and painting as her therapy and gradually recovered from her illness.
Now working for older youngsters with the charity Transitions UK, she keeps two days a week free in order to continue with her writing adventures.weniger sehen
