Writing

Siepmann writes beautifully about the wonders of India under the Raj – the scents, sights, people and traditions, her style at times reminiscent of the late, great M.M Kaye. Historical Novels Review
I feel very privileged to have one of my stories included in a wonderful new anthology. Tell Me a Story is a delightful collection for children aged 3 to 6. The stories and poems are wide-ranging – some are funny, others with a gentle emotional appeal – and all emphasise old-fashioned values, giving children a happy, contented feeling that’s perfect for bedtime or for curling up by the fireside with cookies and milk.
