Ari Meghlen is an English lass now living in beautiful Northern Ireland. After creating and running the successful #TheMerryWriter hashtag game on Twitter for a few years, it then morphed into #TheMerryWriterPodcast which she runs with her friend and fellow author, Rachel Poli. When she's not working, Ari can be found in her writing cave working on one of her (many) manuscripts. Her very first story scribbled at the age of 8, was about a monster under the bed and she hasn't stopped writing since. She shares writing updates in her newsletter, writing advice on her blog and random photos and memes on her Instagram. She does occasionally find time to leave her writing cave and indulge in other hobbies such as gardening, blogging, making things, drawing, shooting arrows, watching movies, losing at cards and spending time with her partner and their cats.
