Suzanne Linsey-Mitellas

Suzanne Linsey-Mitellas was born in London and is a mum to two boys aged 19 and 8. She is married to Alan and has a very spoilt cat called Luna. Her first books were published when she was 8 years old when her father entered her into a WH Smith story writing competition, and from this the 'Tracey Banks' series was born, which told the story of a girl who solved magical mysteries, but was always home in time for tea! In her local primary school Suzanne had her own 'wall' full of her stories and poems which classmates were encouraged to read, and due to her prolific works the wall was never empty! Suzanne worked 17 years for a local authority in their press and communications department, where she juggled the competing needs of senior politicians, wrote press releases and speeches, as well as managing the social media output. She has recently started her own thriving gardening business. Although she has written many stories her entire life, her recent novel, Seeing Things, was born from her early experiences with her grandmother, Alice Whitfield, who was a Jewish spiritualist and psychic medium. During childhood Suzanne thought nothing of staying in a 'haunted house' and grew up with the notion that ghosts and other dimensions were very real, not things one imagined on dark stormy nights. Suzanne has written her debut novel Seeing Things as part of a trilogy, or series if required. She is currently writing the second instalment entitled Dead Line.
