Ravven is an author and artist, originally from the US but now living permanently in the UK. She lives with her husband in a tall, skinny house in a Staffordshire market town, with too many cats and far too many books. They both do a lot of gaming. The Clockwork Bluebird is her first book. Likes: vodka and Pepsi, all-black clothing, reading on rainy days, the smell of a horse’s neck, Zoe from Firefly and eating raw chocolate chip cookie dough. Dislikes: epeen, reality TV, cigarettes and rudeness.
