Author: Krystyna

I've been acting professionally since I was 14. I completed my three-year drama school training, culminating in the Advanced Acting Diploma in Performing Arts, with Distinction. I'm an Equity, Bectu, Spotlight, and Actors Centre member. I've been Presenting on Radio since 2007: Meridian FM, Radio Redhill, Uckfield FM, Redstone FM, now 107.8 Radio Jackie and BBC Surrey and Sussex. I completed a Creative Writing course at the University of Sussex, during which time I wrote short stories and also embarked upon a massive project: writing a semi autobiographical novel, which to this day is on-going and composting, hence constantly changing shape and genre. I have written features for 'East Grinstead Living' and 'Sussex Life Magazines', and the local papers, including the East Grinstead Courier, where I had my own regular column: 'Krys Says This', plus a Food Review for the Times of Tunbridge Wells. I have also written radio adverts and radio plays. I studied Polish Philology at the Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Poland, 1984-85 (under scholarship from the Polish Consulate in London), before embarking on my BA Hons (Lond) degree (Polish Studies) 1985-1989 at SSEES, University of London, during which time I was sent back to the Jagiellonian University in Krakow for a second year 1985-86 (at the time of the Cold War when Poland was still behind the Iron Curtain). I then worked for Macmillan Publishers (Academic and Professional) in London, 1989 - 1994. I live in West Sussex, am married to Andrew since 1988, have two grown-up daughters, Anna and Helena, and three pups, Scamp, Storm and Blue.
