After completing a degree in English & Creative Writing, Emma became a professional copywriter and now spends all day - literally - writing. Living on the edge of a forest, Emma enjoys exploring the wilderness while thinking through her latest plot tangle, scouting out exciting craft ales and indulging in historical romances.
