I was born in a remote part of the Isle of Skye, and when there wasn't much to do or the weather was bad, I devoured books upon books, and then advanced to creating my own short stories and terrible poetry in my teenage years. After gaining a first-class degree in Classics, where reading very old books was a must, I decided I couldn’t bear time away from my beloved books. I knew that if I became a librarian, I'd forever be surrounded by books. And so that's what I did!I seriously began writing again when pregnant with my first child. I wanted to bring stories about animals and environmental issues alive for both my own children and others. I have a deep connection with nature and the Scottish landscape and culture, including Gaelic. I also loves stories about stumbling upon a secret world where magical things can happen. My first novel for older children, The Golden Feather, combines all of these elements.
