Sue is a freelance journalist writing for national newspapers and magazines specialising in human interest, cookery and health articles. As a BBC television producer working on garden make-overs, daytime sofas and hospital wards she enjoyed all the fun, glamour and hard work of a media career. Throughout this manic life she retains what little sanity she has left by baking cakes - and a long afternoon in the company of a dense, developing chocolate cake as sticky flapjacks turn golden in the oven is all the therapy she needs. It is this passion for baking and compulsion to write that inspired her first novel, a grown up fairytale set behind the scenes in television. Fat Girls and Fairy Cakes is due to be published in September 2011 and is a delicious, humorous and heartbreaking mix of love, weight, revenge - and cake.
