Annette Gisby grew up in a small town in Northern Ireland, moving to London when she was seventeen. Even while still at school, she had articles published in the Mourne Observer newspaper and currently she is well known on the web as a writer, editor and book reviewer.

As well as writing, Annette is the editor of the Twisted Tales webzine, which has stories, poetry, book reviews and author features. She is also the assistant manager of NUW, Not the Usual Way, an online support group for independent writers and just recently she has acquired the position of co-host/forum moderator for the novel writing and publishing forum at the writers' bbs.

When not writing, she enjoys wandering around ruined castles, deserted beaches and going to the cinema, some are great places for inspiration. Her favourite colour is blue, favourite book is Beauty by Sheri S. Tepper and her favourite films are the Lord of the Rings Trilogy.

She still lives in London with her husband, a selection of porcelain dolls and enough books to fill a small library!
