Trish Moran

Trish Moran was born in Dublin, Ireland and moved to the Midlands, UK at a young age. Her first teaching job took her to London and she later taught in Greece. After several years, she travelled to Australia and worked as a bank teller in Melbourne.

After over a decade outside the UK, she moved back to the small Midlands town where she grew up.

Trish has always been an avid reader; one of her friends describes her as a readaholic, nervously lining up her next book as she comes to the end of the present one. She enjoys reading a wide variety of books which includes YA – especially fantasy and stories of more down to earth dysfunctional families; adult thrillers with complicated plots; and stories with quirky characters. She loves to discover a book with a new slant and think, ‘Gosh, what a great idea! I wish I’d thought of that!’

In her thirties, Trish decided she would like to try writing, and completed several (unpublished) short stories and novellas before embarking on the Clone Trilogy - YA Sci Fi; Mirror Image, Altered Image and Perfect Image, published with Accent Press.

Shrinking Violet, published with Solstice Publishing was her first venture into YA Paranormal.

The idea for the Enchanted Series came after a trip to a medieval castle and overhearing a young child saying, ‘Where do the dragons and wizards live now, mummy?’ And it expanded from there.

As well as reading and writing; Trish enjoys going to the gym, walking and nature photography.
