About

During the unprecedented period of closure during the COVID-19 Pandemic most of us felt rather lost and apprehensive. I wanted to provide a platform to share links to online activities and choirs, recordings, downloadable manuscripts and information to support - and perhaps entertain! - fellow sacred music lovers. Hence "Viral Music"... which has been updated to "Between the Verses".

I have blogged prolifically for many years, initially over at Musings of a Twentieth Century Stay at Home Mum before branching out. Many of these articles went on to be published on other parenting and special needs platforms and writing became something of a hobby.

Whilst bringing up my young family I thoroughly enjoyed creating my own space on the web, whilst keeping my brain active!



My second blog is The Recipe Resource, which has by far my largest readership. This is for those catering for children on exclusion diets, something I know far more about than I would like to! It also contains some opinion pieces regarding living with allergies and some factual information to help families.

Lastly I had a bit of fun with Dorothy Whiskers for a time, an online magazine for 6-10 year olds. Life got in the way however, and my passion for choral music took over! 

I'm a former teacher, Cambridge History graduate and I am rather obsessed with choral music. I've sung in Anglican church choirs for years, with a necessary hiatus whilst parenting small children! I currently sing with the choir of Ipswich Minster choir at St Mary le Tower, I am also a member of their Chamber Choir, Ipswich Chamber Choir, Prometheus and a London based choir called St. Alphage Chorus. I earned my RSCM Gold Award in 2019 and spent the pandemic years supporting the Anglican choral tradition as best I could.
