Allie Cresswell
I have been writing stories since I could hold a pencil and by the time I was in Junior School I was writing copiously and sometimes almost legibly.

It was at this time that I had the difference between fiction and lies forcefully impressed upon me, after penning a long and entirely spurious account of my grandfather’s death and funeral.....
The teacher had permitted it as being good therapy for bereavement whereas in fact it was only a good excuse to get out of learning my multiplication tables (something I have never achieved).

Miriam Verbeek
I've loved to create stories for as long as I can remember; characters come tumbling out of my brain and worlds develop around them.

Reflecting now on my childhood, I often wonder why, given that I was often scribbling stories, that my parents didn't encourage me to take up a writing career. I asked my moth
