Belinda Archer
Hi there! I'm a former lifestyle and travel journalist, having written for a broad range pf publications from The Times to The Guardian, the Daily Mail and Harper's Bazaar. Now I'm a full-time author and I published my first book, Mixed Doubles -- a bouncy rom-com set in a quintessentially English country tennis club -- in 2022.
In December 2024 I published my second book, Motherhood -- a poignant but funny tale about how there is more than one way to be a mother. The idea behind it is that a woman doesn't have to have a baby to be a mother; she can 'mother' other things, from friends' or siblings' children to her pets or even creative projects. The novel was inspired by a quote from Jennifer Aniston, who is famously child-free and vocal on

Jo de-Lancey
Jo de-Lancey is a fantasy writer from the U.K. She wanted to be an author from a very young age, and used to while away the hours writing stories about enchanted scarecrows – which she’d then read to her older brother and his friends. Yes, she now cringes about this, but everyone has to start somewhere and with some sort of audience.

She’s since left the scarecrows behind in favour of thieves, pirates and magic. A love of the classic Final Fantasy and Zelda games drew her towards the fantasy genre, as well as the desire to create her own world. Her debut novel, The Crystal Shore, is the first in a series of four.

Mike Gayle
I was born in the 70s — the 70s were great. I would recommend them to anyone.
Buy books on Amazon
I was also born in Birmingham — in my humble opinion the greatest city in the world with the nicest people too.
I used to live in London — a great city too. But a bit on the pricey side.
I also used to live in Manchester — another great city (although technically I lived in Salford which is next door but that’s sort of splitting hairs).
Before I went to university I wanted to be a social worker — I have no idea why. It didn’t last long.
After I left university I wanted to write for the NME — I’ve always loved music but it was only when I went to uni that it started loving me back. I can’t play any instruments or sing so writing about music seemed to make sense.

The peculiar workings of his mind once threw out a phrase: No one knows but I, who wrote this here and why. He captured the thought, then laid the journal aside. Many sun-cycles later, he found those dust-laden notes and decided to find out what those words meant. This led him to Lanky, Jessica, and Beth. And Naga and the Iyes. And Shadow and the Ka. And ... Well, to the tale of the Warriors of the Continuum, a tale of courage, love, and hope cast in both shadow and light.
