I am UK based and an avid reader. I'll read almost anything but tend to prefer sci-fi, horror or crime fiction. I grew up watching DR Who, Star Trek, Thunderbirds etc. I'd spend all day reading, if I didn't have to go to work, look after 3 kids, 2 dogs and 1 husband. For those who you who may wonder, my earliest devotion to sci-fi was Dr Who and woe betide anyone who changed the channel on Saturday evening, I was only 6 but I had to hide behind the sofa from the Daleks (the first doctor that I actually remember was Tom Baker which will give many of you an idea of my age).
