Living in Berlin but still a Mancunian at heart! Victoria Hancox has worked as a nurse, science teacher and now, is finally getting paid as a writer, albeit for e-learning content. This is a far cry from her early stabs at novels with the escapades of Charlie the hamster. These days she prefers to immerse herself in the world of interactive gamebooks, revisiting her misspent youth, where she cheated with dice, never died in battle and was always lucky. When not at a desk, this (almost) lifelong vegetarian is usually cooking and eating, although she now has to fight off Frank the cat, especially when it comes to cheese and bread!
