Gracie Dix
My parents tell me I've been writing since I could hold a pencil. What I know is that I have always loved writing! I love creating the characters I care about, their families and friends, the exciting worlds they live in, and how they conquer their challenges! If I'm not writing (or doing high school homework), I'm probably singing, watching TV or YouTube, or chilling with the two most wonderful dogs in the world -- Snowball and Sandcastle "Sandy." Of course, I also love hanging out with my friends, my parents, and my brother Nate, whenever he's home from college.

Julia Golding
My journey to becoming an author has been a roundabout one, taking in many other careers. I grew up on the edge of Epping Forest and was that dreamy kind of child who was always writing stories.

My work as a diplomat took me from the high point of town twinning in the Tatra Mountains to the low of inspecting the bottom of a Silesian coal mine.

On leaving Poland, I exchanged diplomacy for academia and took a doctorate in the literature of the English Romantic Period at Oxford. I then joined Oxfam as a lobbyist on conflict issues, campaigning at the UN and with governments to lessen the impact of -
