Annabelle Cormack
Annabelle realised she wanted to be a writer when a teacher told her that scribbling stories about dragons on a maths test was frowned upon in civilised society. She decided that civilised society was not for her and has been writing about cheerfully amoral witches and deadly curses ever since. Growing up in rural France, with the only phone signal to be obtained by balancing on the hen house, nature is a constant source of inspiration to her. She writes poetry for several magazines and was longlisted for the National Poetry Competition 2022. Currently, Annabelle is the Bard of Bath, organising literary events and sending altogether too many emails.

YA Fantasy
What if you were the villain all along? In the conquered kingdom of Talismere, ruled by the tyrannical Empire, young witch Auriel makes her living as a poison-maiden, murdering for money with the help of her accomplice Faolan. When she is hired by the resistance to assassinate the Empress Liana, her loyalties are tested when she discovers that the Empress is her long-lost sister. Auriel is torn between her allegiance to the enigmatic leader of the resistance, Ambrose, her growing feelings for Faolan, and her understanding of Liana’s darkness – the same darkness that is stirring within her own heart. One witch’s choices will shape the future of her world forever.
