Author: Juliet Barrable

Juliet is married with one daughter, a dog and a cat. She grew up in East London, but currently resides in Hertfordshire. Having spent her formative years in the Mod scene, she has a lot of love for the 60’s...and the music of the Mod Father, Mr Paul Weller. Juliet has always loved to write and began training to be a journalist, before ill health caused her to put her life on hold. Two kidney transplants later, she still enjoys all kinds of writing, including poetry, and has had several poems published in various magazines and anthologies. She likes needlecraft, is big on animal rights and loves discovering brilliant new artists that the main stream media may have overlooked. Last, but by no means least, she has a lot of love for two very talented Irish twins, you may know them as Jedward :)
