Anna comes from a very eccentric family. She has lived in many different homes and places. Everything from a converted bus when they joined a circus and a funfair, to boats, houseboats, skyscrapers and haunted houses and cottages - hence the interest in ghosts.At the age of 81, she has launched a book of short stories titled, ’Ghostly Tales and Curious Stories from England’. In the collection of these stories, she says that one or two are true, a few have slight hints to things that have happened, while most of them are complete fiction taken from her extraordinary fertile imagination. The collection completed, she is already preparing more stories for the next book.Her philosophy of ’Let death find me climbing a new mountain’, springs from a former boss in California. She enjoys challenging herself and finding new and interesting things to do - and so using words, attributed to Sir Winston Churchill, she says ’Never give up’.
