Biography
[edit]Sara Wood was born on 1941 in the south of England. Her family was poor but aspirational and avid readers. At the age of 11 Sara won a scholarship for a free place at a well-known fee-paying school. Although she passed all of her O level exams at the age of 16, she left school to train as a secretary and to help the family finances.
Married at 21, with her two sons Richard and Simon being born in the following 3 years, she fitted in care of her young children by starting up a play group and then providing bed and breakfast for tourists in her seaside home. The marriage eventually ended in divorce and Sara needed to find an occupation that would be suitable for her schoolboy sons. She trained as a teacher and met her present husband at the educational college. When they married they moved to Sussex.
Charlotte Lamb inspired her to try writing a Mills & Boon book and it was accepted. Sara decided to write full-time. After some years, she and her husband moved to Cornwall but they have now returned to Sussex and live in the same town as Richard and Simon – and their families. Sara now has 5 grandchildren.
Now, Sara Wood and her husband are grandparents and they live in Sussex.
