Emmalena L. Ellis grew up in Hertfordshire, UK, and began writing poetry from an early age, being published at the age of 13. She then dabbled in fanfiction and copywriting articles before the release of 'Ginsterpigs' at the age of 32. She now lives in Suffolk with her husband Sam and loves collecting vintage dresses and old books. An avid people watcher, Emmalena loves writing slice-of-life novels, drawing her inspiration from the world around her and the conversations she sometimes captures on the bus, in cafes, and in bookshops, as well as spending time engaging in intelligent conversation with cats. 'Ginsterpigs' was born out of her studies at Keele University, where she graduated with a degree in English and American Literatures, and why not to eat sausages after medical students study autopsies.  'Ginsterpigs' is her first venture into the world of fiction.
