Clare Flynn is the author of eight historical novels and a collection of short stories.
A former Marketing Director and management consultant Clare was responsible for marketing all manner of goods from Fairy Liquid to Jaffa Cakes, and helping solve problems and generate ideas for clients from tech companies to retailers, and broadcasters to utility suppliers and drinks manufacturers.
Now she is a full-time writer and loves her life – occasionally asking why it took her so long to start doing this. Instead of dreaming up ideas to improve corporate culture, she finds it much more fun to dream up people and make things happen to them.
Clare now lives by the sea on the English Sussex coast and is planning to travel right round the world next year. She won’t forget to pack her laptop. Meanwhile, when she’s not writing she loves to play the piano, paint and make patchwork quilts (very very slowly!).
