I was brought up in London, but I always longed to live in the country and have lots of animals - especially horses. Well, dreams do come true because I now live on an Exmoor livestock farm with my husband, Chris. Besides dogs, cats and riding horses, we keep Exmoor Horn sheep, North Devon cattle and Exmoor ponies.
Our daughter, Sarah, is now grown up, but when she was a girl she had an Exmoor pony called Tinkerbell. Their eventful partnership inspired me to write my first stories: a trilogy about a girl and an Exmoor pony growing up together on an Exmoor hill farm. The 'Katy's Exmoor' trilogy was illustrated by Chris, and we self-published it under the imprint Tortoise Publishing. We also published a book called Midnight on Lundy.

Publishing my own books was hard work, so I was delighted when Orion Children's Books took me on in 2011. The 'Katy's Ponnies Trilogy' has now been re-written and updated with expert editorial guidance, and it was published by Orion in 2012 as 'Katy's Wild Foal', 'Katy's Champion Pony' and 'Katy's Pony Surprise'. The books have a great deal of new content, including author's notes, new inside illustrations by Chris and beautiful cover illustrations by Angelo Rinaldi. 'Midnight on Lundy' was also republished, as 'A Stallion Called Midnight'.
I have just written three brand new books for Orion: 'Joe and the Hidden Horseshoe', 'Joe and the Lightning Pony' and 'Joe and the Race to Rescue'. Horses and ponies are still at the heart of these stories, and although a boy is the main character the stories haven't been written specifically for boys. I'm a firm believer that stories with horses and ponies in them shouldn't be exclusively for pony-mad girls!
My books are full of the things I love: horses and ponies, the countryside, farming and people. My Facebook Page is Victoria Eveleigh Author. Please 'Like' it and take a look. I post lots of interesting things about horses and books there, as well as news about my books and our animals here on the farm.
I really like hearing from readers, visiting schools and giving talks, so do get in touch! ...more
