Hazel Arnold was born in Dorset but brought up in suburban Surrey where, following university, she taught in schools of various kinds and married another teacher. Though her main subject was English, an interest in music, drama and art was particularly useful and pleasurable, especially when she finally taught in a junior school.As their two children reached late teens and disaffection with the education system grew, they moved to Dartmoor and opened a small guest house, catering for walkers and school parties. At that time, life was enlivened by two ponies, two cats and a rolling cast of chickens, and, of course, walks on Dartmoor.Hazel has played in a string quartet, sung in a local choir and belongs to an art group. She is an avid reader who sews, cooks and, more recently, much enjoys writing, thanks in part to an invitation to join a writers' group - the Inkspots. See less
