Carolyn Enting

Carolyn Enting lives in Auckland, New Zealand and is associate editor of MiNDFOOD magazine. Prior to moving to MiNDFOOD in 2012, she worked for The Dominion Post for 11 years as a feature writer and fashion editor.

Enting was born in 1970 and grew up in a rural bush setting on Blue Mountains Road, Upper Hutt overlooking the Tararua mountain ranges. The family home had floor-to-ceiling bookshelves in the high stud lounge that spanned two levels. The lounge also housed a tree trunk at its centre upon which a mezzanine platform with more bookshelves perched – like a floating tree house library. Many solitary hours in her childhood were spent reading fantasy and detective novels as well as writing stories dreamed up in her imagination.
