What if? What if your hair grew to your waist every night? What if you could make people do what you wanted simply by thinking about it? What if your grandparents disappeared so completely even their house was gone? What if they turn up after eleven years, want you to live with them, and you're the only person in the world who remembers they were ever gone? What if the first time you fall in love, you're not sure he's even human? What if Parallel Worlds really exist?
Even at this age, I still half hope/expect to find a magic lamp or save a magical creature and be given three wishes. My first series Shared Skies and now The Ibiza Crone Club are both informed by this feeling that magic, other worlds, or mystical powers are just an invisible fingertip away. I am an Irish writer, artist, and teacher. Married with five children and a growing number of grandchildren, I move between Ireland, Scotland, Spain, and Ibiza.
