About Gemma

GEMMA

Gemma was born and grew up in the North East of England near the small city of Sunderland. She studied at an all girls Catholic school here until the age of 18, when it was time to fly the nest and leave for the "big smoke".

This term should be used with a certain degree of irony, as in this case, her destination was the rather modest city of Lancaster where she studied English and Drama at St.Martin's College for 3 years. Aside from various dramatic performances, it was here that she discovered her passion for writing.

She graduated in the year 2000 leaving many good freinds behind and moved to the Lake District where she lived in the village of Ambleside for several months. After returning home and in between the uninspiring working environments of various bars and restaurants, she spent her time persuading local publications to give her that all-important journalistic break.

Her lucky stars were shining and she got the chance she needed on her local newspaper, where her journalistic potential itself shone! She is now studying for a Postgraduate Diploma in Print Journalism at Wesminster University.
