Mr Vince Cleghorne

“A children’s author should only be as silly as their middle and last names.” - Vince Adolphus Cleghorne (children’s author)

Vince spends his waking hours writing about animals that won’t be quiet, kids with huge hair, and very smelly witches. He’s been a street dancer, a grave digger, a ghost-writer, and a BBC playwright. His claims to fame include buying Gandalf a whisky and attending the same school as a Beatle. He has written award-winning screenplays, novels, and children’s books, earning him praise from DreamWorks SKG, Richard Branson, and HRH the Prince of Wales. Vince is inspired by his son Kyle and his granddaughter's Amber and Hollie, and at present lives in Liverpool’s Georgian Quarter, with a very spoilt cat and a wealth of possibilities.
