A Stockport (near Manchester, UK) native, Andrea took her life in her hands a few years ago and crossed the great North/South divide and now lives in Norfolk with her partner, their two border collies, and two and a half cats (one isn't sure if she wants to be theirs anymore as the lady down the street feeds her Whiskas rather than whatever is on offer at the supermarket, like they do). Andrea spends her time running their campsite and hostel to pay the bills, and scribbling down stories during the winter months. <p></p>Andrea is an avid reader and a keen musician, playing the saxophone and the guitar (just to annoy her other half--apparently). She is also a recreational diver and takes an opportunity to head to warmer climes and discover the mysteries of life beneath the waves.<br><br>
