SPOTLIGHT: Lucy Diamond

We're a bit of a fan of Lucy Diamond here at Trashionista, so with her second recently released novel doing so well, I thought this week we would turn the spotlight on her.

Click on to her website and you'll find Lucy is just a pseudonym. Lucy's real name is Sue Mongredien, but she is known by this name as a popular children's author and has a different one for her adult books as she didn't want to cause any confusion.

Not only has Lucy published two novels but she has a huge range of children's books out there too. She also has a bridal column on Trashionista's sister site, Bridalwave and a blog here. She is one busy writer.

Born in Nottingham, Lucy went to university in Leeds before settling into the world of publishing. After having children her life of working and socialising and shopping was replaced with domestic chores, breast-feeding, nappy-changing and Tumble Tots. So she enrolled on a writer's evening class with the University of Sussex and Any Way You Want Me was born out of one of the dialogue exercises they were set. The rest, as they say, is history.
