Autorenporträt
Ghillian Potts was 85 the day before the publication in 2018 of her latest novel, Wolftalker. Alongside bringing up a family, she has worked in bookshops, in educational publishing and as a secondary school teacher. She has been writing continuously, both prose and verse, since she was seven. At that age she got out of a bit of housework by saying, 'Must I, Mum? I'm writing a Poem!' in her best whine. To her amazement, her mum at once said, 'Oh, all right, I'll do it!' Obviously, writing was a Good Thing. As well as a number of stories for 7-10 year-olds published in the 1990s and 2000s, one of which, Sink or Swim, featured on Jackanory, she has written historical readers for a local school. Arachne Press is publishing her young adult novels, and stories for much younger children which were written at various stages in her career, but not published until now.
