Lisa Matthews

Hello, I'm Lisa Matthews. I was Born in Croydon on 20/11/1968. I have alway's written, mainly as a hobby. I started writing more seriously for children or more to the point, for my childrens entertainment. I am fortunate to have two beautiful daughters. In 1996 I wrote a book called 'Just A Thought.' A book of poetry for children. Under my 1st married name Lisa Polya. (I am twice married) Also I have several poems in several books.

My latest book 'It's Way Past Your Dead Time.' is my first adult themed short novel and was born from my husbands and daughters love of vampires. My husband Russell has over 300 vampire films. Having a love of vampires, and most things gothic as the family seem to, we had a gothic wedding and my daughters were dressed as the 'Brides Of Dracula.' My husband once said; 'If someone gets bitten by a vampire as well as staying young they should stay in the same state they were when they were bitten.' I took this and added my own take on it. If an elderly woman is bitten, she'll stay deaf, toothless and have all sorts of problems.

I'm now in the process of writing the follow up to 'It's Way Past Your Dead Time' called 'Trina's War.' A character called Janie was bitten while premenstrual in book 1, so chaos will ensue in book 2

Feel free to follow me on Facebook where I have a Page called 'It's Way Past Your Dead Time.'

I look forward and welcome any views and opinions on any of my works, good, bad or indifferent.

Regards,

Lisa
