Chroma: Imogen's Secret

B. Fleetwood grew up in Birmingham, UK, in the late fifties and sixties. The third of six children, she began writing at the age of eight by entering (and winning) a Cadbury Chocolate writing contest. She had long dreamed of writing a fantasy novel with a strong, smart female protagonist (someone who did not see the world in black and white) and in 2011, she quit her job in order to write it. And so, Chroma was born.

She has held all manner of jobs in her life, from waitressing and bartending to acting as an exams officer and devising the school timetable. She and her engineering husband have resided in Stockport, UK, for over thirty years and have four children and four granddaughters.
