Author Information

Eve Wersocki-Morris (Author) Eve Wersocki Morris grew up in North London and has been making up stories her whole life. Diagnosed with dyslexia aged 12 and called out by a teacher as the 'worst speller in the class', she is now the author of two novels for older MG readers, with her debut The Bird Singers now nominated for multiple awards. A standout performer at school events thanks to a background in drama, Eve is also a volunteer with Coran Beanstalk Literary Charity. Honie Beam (Illustrator) Honie Beam was once let loose in a library and never looked back. In pursuit of her childhood goals to become an artist, an author and a smoothie maker, she studied Illustration and Sequential Art at Maryland Institute College of Art. Now based in Greenville, South Carolina Honie spends her free time drinking (a lot) of coffee, playing (badly) the mandolin, and doodling (on important documents) dragons. Her work is inspired by the countless books she consumed as a child and a desire to spark that same passion in others.
