Eleanor St Clair

I come from a small village in South Wales. I’ve moved around a bit, but somehow, I always end up back here.

I started out my working life as a molecular biologist, but after falling asleep on a microscope, an incident that left me with red rings around my eyes for days, I realised that this career was not for me.

I turned to my true love — writing —working three jobs whilst studying to complete my Masters. My favourite job was in a traditional sweet shop because Sundays were quiet and I could write under the counter whilst sucking a sherbet lemon.
