Bio
I'm a writer and storyteller interested in traditional tales and the oral tradition. Textile crafts are also important to me and I find the linguistic overlap fascinating. I have two children and love being outdoors, with and without them!

Lottie, splashing in the river, found a glittering lump of iron pyrite. She insisted it was fairy gold, but Sasha set her straight: iron pyrite is fools’ gold. It might look like the real thing, but it’s not. Fairy gold is different: it is the real thing… for a while. But by morning it will be gone, turned to sand. You must be careful where you spend it!
