Pamela McMonagle was born Pamela May in South Africa, the youngest of three children born to Jock and Maggie May.  She loves telling stories, is an incurable romantic and is a writer of novels, short stories, children's stories and poetry and is a creator of unique products.

When she was eight, her father bought her a tennis racquet to practice for the school tennis team and she began hitting balls against the back wall of her house. Within a short while however, she started telling herself stories out loud as she hit the ball up against the wall, always above the brick line which served as an invisable net, onto the rough-cast upper section.

Suddenly she no longer wanted to play tennis at school but rather wanted to rush home to continue the story of yesterday. She doesn't remember any of the stories except that they were romantic ones  and she remembers that come winter cold or summer highveld heat, she would be out there for hours on end weaving romance in the air. She bounced that ball against the wall until all the hair wore off and it became shiny, smooth and black and didn't look anything like a tennis ball at all.

As she grew older she replaced the tennis racquet and ball with the manual keyboard of an old black Remington given to her by a family friend.

On leaving school she worked as a secretary to the financial director of a large international company and one of her colleagues, after reading a few of the short stories she'd written, encouraged Pamela to send one of them to Living & Loving magazine where it was accepted for publication. A short while afterwards she had another one published in the Darling magazine.

A year later she married, had two children and along with her husband started a carpet cleaning and janitorial business and the business and family became the focus of her time and energy for the next 20 years.

During the past few years, with her children no longer living at home, she has been very active completing four novels, many short stories, six children's stories and a number of poems plus designing and creating some interesting products.

Pamela and her husband, Michael live in Florida, U.S.A.
