Maureen Vincent-Northam has written seriously ever since Father Christmas left her a Petite typewriter.
She wrote Trace your Roots and Black Dog's Treasure, and co-authored The Writer’s ABC Checklist. Her work has appeared in newspapers, magazines, anthologies and online.
She writes regularly for markets aimed at writers, has tutored workshops, edited anthologies, judged online writing contests and her story for 5-8 year-olds even won The Writers’ Advice Centre for Children’s Books 2008 competition.
An editor with Crooked Cat Books, she's rubbish at cooking, works from her home office when not burning dinner, and can usually be found surrounded by empty chocolate wrappers.
