Hi, I’m Violet and I live in Liverpool, England with a pair of ridiculously tiny dogs and a terrifyingly vocal cat.

I’m the author of the bestselling urban fantasy series, The Netherweird Chronicles. If you’d like to be amongst the first to hear all the news from Netherweird, please do sign up to the newsletter – in return, you’ll get a free short story set in the Netherweird universe!

 

Prior to publishing The Netherweird Chronicles, I was a freelance journalist. I’ve also written three history books: Sex and Sexuality in Victorian Britain, A History of the Vampire in Popular Culture and Sex, Drugs and Proxy Rule: Secrets and Scandals in Regency Britain.

Oh and I once got turned down for a job as an undertaker’s assistant for being ‘too knowledgeable about death’. Which is quite an achievement.

Having always been fascinated by history and mythology, I eventually figured out how to combine them into an Actual Job. Which is lucky, because I am otherwise utterly unemployable.

And yes, the quotes at the top of this page are absolutely real. My life is weird.
