Writer of dual timeline, time travelling adventures
C S Dalton
A proud Yorkshire lass at heart, I have lived in Cumbria for the past fourteen years, mainly because my love of mountains overrules the love of my Yorkshire roots. By day (and too often evening and night), I run a guesthouse just outside Keswick, alongside my long suffering husband of thirty one years. Other loves include my dogs, weird people, trees and copious amounts of coffee.
