Avril
Dalziel Saunders was born in Glasgow. Like most families,
life was a struggle after the Second World War. Her parents
worked hard to make ends meet, but held their heads high.
As far as Avril and her brother were concerned, they felt
privileged and were brought up with lots of love, honesty
and respect.
Avril
has held jobs with major companies throughout her career,
among them a large international company in Glasgow centre
and Thames TV in London. She moved to Surrey in 1971 with
her husband and baby son. Within the next 6 years, the family
was blessed with two daughters. She is now a grandmother.
Avril
has retired to the Surrey countryside and has many interests,
including music, travel, theatre, and the arts. She has always
loved writing, and has, at last, found the time to write her
first novel.
