Author Biography
Terri was born in the historic maritime city of Plymouth, England in 1965. At the age of 9 she moved with her family to Cornwall, to a small village on the edge of Bodmin Moor, where she discovered a love of writing that has stayed with her ever since. She also discovered apple-scrumping, and how to jump out of a hayloft without breaking any bones, but no-one's ever offered to pay her for doing those. Since publishing in paperback for the first time in 2002, Terri has appeared in both print and online fiction collections, and is proud to have contributed to the Shirley Jackson award-nominated hardback collection: Bound for Evil, by Dead Letter Press with her short story The Truth Inside the Lie. Her first novel, Maid of Oaklands Manor, was published by Piatkus Entice (little, brown Book Group) in July 2013. Terri now lives in Plymouth again with her youngest son, and works in the Faculty of Arts and Humanities at Plymouth University where she is constantly baffled by the number of students who don't possess pens.
