Cheryl Saunders

Mum of boys, teacher of teenagers, neurodivergent business owner and blogger, and now I can officially add creative writer to this list!

I have wanted to write since I was a little girl, telling my stories to younger family members, constantly writing, and forever buried in a book. My passion for storytelling and creative writing led me to English teaching, blogging, and now, novel writing.

My determination to champion those who are neurodivergent and have Additional Support Needs has led me to become an ASN teacher, a Nurture teacher, and now the owner of an ASN tutoring and outreach service – CAS Creative Education.

When I’m not doing these, I can be found plodding around a parkrun route, throwing slam balls at the gym, playing the flugelhorn in Unite Scotland Kinneil Band, enjoying a hot tub dip, or indulging in some cold-water therapy. 

I am incredibly excited to be on this journey with Sam and can’t wait to see where it takes me. To come from starting my blog two years ago, to writing a novel, is a dream and a proper “pinch me” moment, and I feel very fortunate to be able to share my writing.
