Meet Annie
A little bit about me: I live on the south coast of England with my family (spouse, two dogs and two cats) and work part-time as a university researcher. I love reading (obviously) and fully expect to one day be crushed by the weight of my toppling ‘to be read’ pile. Books are just lovely to be around, aren’t they? I like cupcakes almost as much as I like books but funnily enough I don’t seem to have a towering ‘to be eaten’ pile hanging around. I also love the sea and am lucky enough to live only a few minutes’ walk from a beautiful harbour. When not reading, writing or eating cupcakes, I like to go for long walks in the saltmarshes near my home.
I’m now working on my next novel– a body-swap, timeslip, feminist ghost story set in late 16th century Italy which I’m very excited about.

Hello and welcome to my website. I’m so excited that my debut novel
The Hollow Sea - which will be published by Penguin Michael Joseph on 18 August 2022 - is almost out in the wild for readers to discover. It’s about identity, grief, coming to terms with childlessness, mother/daughter relationships and reconnection with nature, and has bonus whales, seals and even (perhaps) a mermaid or two. I really hope there’s something in it for everyone. Click on the image for more information.
