À propos de l'auteur

Maggie Harkness was raised in Lancashire, lived in London and now in glorious Monmouthshire. She has worked as a lawyer and a counsellor and her writing reflects her interest in people. Anna Hitch, Welsh by adoption, moved to Wales more than 40 years ago for a family life of semi self-sufficiency while continuing a career in the NHS. Steve Hoselitz worked as a journalist before developing a second career as a craft potter, amateur gardener and professional grandfather… Louise Longworth: ‘I have lived all over the place, due to a life spent as an actress, working in the theatre, television and radio. Having settled with my husband and family in Wales, and having taken up writing, I have been fascinated to find so many similarities between the two creative forms, for example in the development of characters and dialogue.’ Gerald Mason is a retired steelworker and twilight antique dealer addicted to fishing. Margaret Payne moved from London to Wales 15 years ago. Now retired from teaching, she enjoys tai chi, knitting, morris dancing and, of course, creative writing. Hugh Rose, ex-professional soldier, ex-professional gardener, ex-nomad, fell in love with Monmouthshire 42 years ago.
