Beatrice Colin

I'm a novelist/radio dramatist. I've written seven novels (two for children) and numerous plays for BBC Radio 4.

My last novel, To Capture What We Cannot Keep was published in late 2016/early 2017.

I am inspired by new places and old books, snatches of conversation and boards on Pinterest (seed catalogues from the 19th century!) I am a list-maker, a grower, on a good year, of fruit and vegetables, a walker of old paths and a mother of teenagers.

Writing novels helps me to discover something new - about the world, about history, about myself.
