Following publication of several short stories and poems, Wendy wrote her novel Chin Up! telling of a young girl’s struggles to cope with the progression of her great-aunt’s Alzheimers Disease which, she feared, would put them both in State care.
Deep Water Junk is her first marine novel, finished whilst living with her husband and feline crew on a junk-rigged catamaran.view less
