My Story
I am from Kilkenny, a medieval, haunted city in the south of Ireland, which was the inspiration for the town in A Place Called Perfect. I write stories full of adventure because I get bored really easily. I am also a graphic designer for my brother and sisters lighting design business Willie Duggan in Ireland.
A Place Called Perfect was my first book. It was published in August 2017 and was a Waterstones Book of the Month. It won numerous awards including Crimefest Children's Book of the Year and was nominated for the Irish Book Awards and Waterstones Children's Prize.
​
The Trouble with Perfect was published in September 2018 and the last book in the trilogy The Battle for Perfect was published in September 2019.
​
The series is a bestselling series has sold over 120,000 copies and counting and is published in 13 languages to date.
​
When I'm not writing or designing I'm hanging around with Robbie, my husband (who loves climbing mountains), my daughters Jo and Bobbie and our crazy rescue dog Tinker.
