In Her Own Words
About her
Firstly, please don't be alarmed by the book I'm reading in the profile photo: I don't have dementia - far from it - but can lend it to you, if needs be!
I've been living in London for many years and I'm a writer. I write articles and short stories for a monthly magazine and I also teach creative writing. I love it - big turn-on.
So yep, I'm passionate about words and books, but also friends, blokes, going out, meeting new people, drinking, cooking and definitely...talking.
I have a 20 year old daughter who comes and goes as she pleases and a 15 year old son who spends every weekend with his dad.
I'd say I'm outgoing, good company, and friends think I'm 'clever and witty'. (Actually, forget the self-deprecatory stuff - that's a lie - I like to think I'm clever and witty.)
I'm lucky, I reckon, because I'm as happy at parties, or in a roomful of people I've never met, as I am staying in curled up on the sofa alone with a movie and a bottle of red wine. It's a big enough sofa for two, though...
About her ideal match
There's a spark.
I guess I can't leave it at that, can I. Obviously there needs to be a spark between us, but also you need to have it for yourself and your own life.
I like all sorts of traits and characteristics in men - I love men (generally) and the right body is one of life's great pleasures.
I could do the yadda yadda about how you need to be warm, passionate, funny, clever, sexy, quirky and a little edgey, but if you've got this far reading my profile, I assume you're all of the above.
I'm hoping you are, and look forward to hearing from you.
