      Two full length stage plays: Does Your Mother Dance? Love affairs, family conflict, and wanting to be in show business. “My auntie Julie believes everybody should have what they want in life, at least once, even if it’s only for a little while. ‘The trouble is’, she says, ‘choosing the right thing to want.” Kathy Hylton is a feisty 30-something, hard-working P.A. with a lousy boss. She dreams of being a singer, and is the kind of girl who can make it happen. In the meantime, she’s about to dump her long-term boyfriend, and feels bad about it. Kathy is trying to change her life - and cope with ‘the merry widow’ Susan, her Mother. Mixed Company A black comedy - Viv Hoyland, followed by her little friend Ellie, invades Gwen Courtney's elegant house and lonely life. 'All girls together' - or are they?

    When people ask me where it all comes from, this writing, I tell them I have this special software - it's called 'my imagination'. There's reality and experience in the background though; for example, when I was young we lived in a run-down pub not unlike The Black Bull.I first started writing when I was a young Mum with two small children. I entered a novel writing competition in a magazine - I didn't win, but it taught me to type!My characters do most of the writing for me, they become voices in my head and take on a life of their own. They're no angels, and they get into the sort of relationship situations which fascinate me. They make me care about them; they make me cry, and they make me laugh. I hope they'll do the same for you.'Liz's Drama Press Reviews''...dry and kindly observation ...with real passion.' The Guardian'... a good ear and understanding.'
