Nell Grey is an artist and writer of eccentric and often witchy fiction. She is fascinated by cusps and borderlines - how does love become obsession, eccentricity madness?

Her poems, short stories, articles and reviews have appeared both online and in magazines such as Smith's Knoll, Iota, Orbis and others.

Three novels - Solitary Pleasures, The Golden Web and Three Magic Women - have been published both in print form and as Kindle e-books. My Imaginary Life, Memoirs of an Ostrich, Solitary Pleasures and Solstice, a collection of magical short stories, are Kindle e-books.

Nell has a passion for the natural world, archaic mystery, myth and legend and those places where fact and fiction cross and mingle. Most of her stories and poems ferment an

A new book of poetry, published with CreateSpace like Hill of the Magic Hare. I must say that after many misgivings I'm really pleased and surprised at the quality of the books they produce. There's no noticeable loss of colour to the cover because files created in RGB are somehow cleverly converted to CMYK for printing, leaving one free to create the cover artwork and forgo the interminable t Read more of this blog post »

Quotes by Nell Grey  (?)

“When I was seventeen I found a man, or maybe he found me. Away from home for the first time, out of reach of my father’s archaic restrictions and my mother’s culinary insistence, I cut off my hair, dropped my Christian name, wore black and toyed with anorexia, passing incognito among the city workers, just another ant in that vast heap.”
Nell Grey

“I stood transfixed, the silence ringing in my ears. From the field of wild grasses; cocksfoot, tufted hair, wild oat, tall fescue, reed canary and perennial rye, their subtle shades of green, ochre and pink softly patching and blending in rustling movement, suddenly rose a small flock of starlings that had been feeding quietly unseen among the tall waving stems, the swish of their glossy wings startlingly loud in the stillness of midday. Heat held me captive.”
Nell Grey

“...red sings like summer in the shadows, hot on my tongue...”

“These woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.”
Robert Frost, Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening

“Time and trouble will tame an advanced young woman, but an advanced old woman is uncontrollable by any earthly force.”
