Scuba Dancing - Softcover

Nicola Slade was brought up in Poole, Dorset. She wrote children's stories when her three children were growing up, moving onto short stories for several national magazines. Winning a story competition in Family Circle galvanised her into writing seriously and since then her stories and articles have been commissioned regularly. Scuba Dancing is her first published novel. Because so many people live alone today, Nicola suggests that a lively singles group such as the one in Scuba Dancing might be a desirable alternative to suffering in silence - though perhaps a group with a more orthodox agenda than the one in the book. Nicola enjoys travelling and has lived in Egypt. She has tried her hand at antiques dealing and as an artist is currently being asked for pictures of giant vegetables - her latest commission being a three foot long chilli pepper. Nicola, her husband and their cat live near Winchester in Hampshire.

"A quirky and well written novel with a crisp and witty style, featuring delicious black comedy." -- New Writer's Scheme"
