When I'm not reading strange magical books and working on my next book, I like to eat good food, watch movies, dance around the kitchen, write poetry and wander the woods, which I believe is the most magical place on earth.An enchanting new novella set in the magical world of Sunday Times bestseller Threadneedle. I have now moved back West, to Bristol, with my husband and son.
It resulted in my debut novel Threadneedle, the first in my Language of Magic series. A world where magic gleams both light and very, very dark. A world where libraries made of books breathe dusty pages beneath the city and witch clubs serve up magical cocktails and vintage shops sell memories. I split my days between freelance work and roaming London, writing in cafés and libraries and any hideouts I could find, eating far too much cake and imagining a magical world hidden within today's London.
I quit my job and wrote a book about magic.
I worked as a journalist for various publications and at a creative agency, before finally doing what I'd always wanted to do. I grew up in the Wye Valley area of Wales and moved to London in my twenties.
