Irene Jorgensen
Irene Jorgensen was that kid in class who secretly read books while the teacher was talking. A few decades later, she realized she had some stories of her own to share — the cozier, the better. Ever fascinated by people and their motivations, Irene’s writing brings together a mishmash of her favourite things: friendship, justice, personality profiling, shadow work…and the TV show Psych. A born-and-bred Canadian, Irene lives in southern Ontario with her Cornish Rex cats Razzle, Annie and Shadow. Their antics frequently end up on the pages of her books.

I was born in the 70s — the 70s were great. I would recommend them to anyone.

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.

A Note from Anne:
My books are my legacy to my children. Unfortunately, they would not grow up in the San Francisco Bay Area like I did. Without a cultural hub to keep the language and philosophies alive, our family would lose this part of our heritage in one generation. My children are visitors to this rich culture, just like my readers. At its core, I alwa -
