    Jackie Forster

    I am a 34-year-old single mum of two, who was lucky enough to grow up in Cornwall, where my interest and enthusiasm for books was born. As a result of being located so close to numerous ancient ruins, thus providing me with the ability to roam and investigate, my inquisitive side got the better of me and my passion for fantasy books and creative writing started to grow. I have lived all over the UK, including Cornwall, Darlington and Newcastle. The last few years I have spent in Greece. My latest story's began as an interactive bedtime story for my eldest who, like me, loves anything supernatural. My only hope is that those who read my work enjoy reading it as much as I have enjoyed writing it.
