The Beehive Cluster: A novel for all ages

Rosemary Pavey was born and spent her childhood in Brighton. After reading for two degrees in English at Oxford University, she volunteered briefly at The Wordsworth Museum in Grasmere before retuning to her native Sussex and beginning a career as a freelance artist. Though best known for her paintings, she has helped to run Stoneywish Nature Reserve in the village of Ditchling for the last 20 years. So when she is not working at her studio, she is probably feeding the geese and chickens somewhere nearby. Rosemary started writing fiction as a child and in recent years has returned to her writer’s desk, producing two novels and numerous short stories, articles, poems and talks, which she is in the process of publishing.
