Maggie Fogarty

Maggie Fogarty is UK award winning television producer, journalist and author - and servant to Bonnie the 'very Cornish' cockapoo!

Her latest book is a collection of short stories, 'Stories for the Road', co-authored with Jude Lennon, featuring six stories from each writer.

She has also written a non-fiction commemorative book: 'Remembrance and Reflection - The Birmingham Bombings' to mark the 50th anniversary of the tragedy. It features the stories of those who were killed, injured or otherwise impacted by the November 21st 1974 Birmingham (UK) pub bombings, England's biggest unsolved mass murder of the 20th century. A bespoke bound copy of the book has been gifted to the city's St Philip's Cathedral.

She wrote her first novel 'My Bermuda Namesakes' during a year long stay in Bermuda in 2011/12 and was a guest columnist for one of the island's newspapers.

Since then she has completed a three part novella series ('The Dilemma Novellas') - 'Dear Mr DJ', 'Dilemmas and Decisions', and 'Backwards and Forwards' - all available as e-books and paperbacks. She has also written a book of short stories 'Shorts and Thoughts' and half of all payments from this book will go to the Social Workers' Benevolent Trust charity.

Maggie now lives in Cornwall, in the far south west of England, with her husband Paul and cockapoo dog Bonnie.
