Margot Shepherd is a British author living in rural Sussex with her husband and Springer Spaniel, Jessie. She writes historical and contemporary literary fiction inspired by real events. They are standalone novels that explore relationships and the complexities of the human experience from a female perspective. Having been a voracious reader of fiction since she was a small child she was determined that one day she would write a novel. The opportunity to fulfil that dream didn't come until she semi-retired. She studied for an MA in Creative Writing at West Dean College; an amazing experience which she will never forget. She has no regrets about embarking on a writing career later in life. She loved her career in medical research and has a lifetime of experiences which she can bring to her novels. Her research on improving the treatment of people with diabetes, has given her many invaluable tools: a knowledge about science which she uses in her writing, the importance of attention to detail and a love of researching the subject she is writing about. Her scientific background was invaluable when writing her first novel, Never Closer. When she is not writing you will find her gardening, walking in the English countryside where she lives or touring in her motorhome around Europe. A favourite summer destination being the Bavarian Alps, and to escape the cold English winter, the beautiful island of Sicily. Her travels provide her with more inspiration for her novels and while she’s travelling, she continues to write. Her love of gardening creeps into her novels and gardens play an important role in her latest book, The Yellow-Tail Moth. Many of the plants in her garden feature in her novels.
