KATE GLANVILLE
Kate Glanville was born in West Africa to Irish parents. Kate now
lives in rural West Wales with her three children, a dog, four cats and three
sheep. She graduated with a degree in fashion design at Central St. Martins and
worked in the textile industry before becoming a ceramic artist. Kate’s
tableware designs have been sold in shops and galleries all over the world
including Liberty, Conran Shop, Fortnum & Masons and Fired Earth. Among her
many customers Kate has produced work for The Prince of Wales, Madonna, Roger Daltry
and Robbie Williams. Despite a successful career as a visual artist Kate has
been writing stories since the age of eight. Terrible spelling and bad
handwriting meant that her literary career was rather slow in developing!

by Penguin U.S. in August 2012 and Accent Press in 2014.
Heartstones
was published by Accent Press in 2014 and Baste Lubbe in Germany in 2015. It
