Julia Tuffs

After a brief (but fun) stint working in television and as a primary school teacher, Julia decided to take her writing dreams more seriously.

She lives in South-West London with her family and ragdoll cats (Billy and Nora) and spends her time writing, reading, dreaming of holidays and watching too much reality TV. She aims to write the kinds of books that will have people laughing out loud – and crying – on their commute. Her young adult novel, HEXED, was nominated for the Laugh Out Loud Awards, and its sequel, TWICE HEXED won the children’s category at the Isle Of Wight Book Awards.

Her debut adult fiction novel, 45 THINGS TO DO BEFORE YOU’RE 45, is out now.
