Sarah Walton

Sarah Walton was born in 70s London. In the 80s she partied. In the 90s she partied harder, studied literature in France and Spain, founded a dot.com and went to Silicon Valley. A bump on the head wiped out a few years. Sarah advises governments and businesses on digital. She teaches MA in Creative Writing at the University of Hull and in a past life was a club VJ, designer, dancer, programmer and the worst waitress in the world. She lives on the edge of the South Downs with two Italian greyhounds.

Sarah's debut novel, RUFIUS was long-listed for the Polari First Book Prize and won her a PhD in Creative Writing from the University of Hull’s Philip Larkin Centre for Poetry and Creative Writing. THE SILK PAVILION, her latest novel, has been called "a brave and important book" by Grace Nichols, the Queen's gold medal winner and the Morning Star called her "a supremely superior realist novelist."

Founder of Soul Writing Retreats & Coaching, Sarah developed an approach to writing from the intuition when recovering from brain injury in 2004, which she teaches at retreat centres and coaches internationally.

Her second novel, SOPHIA'S TALE was written using her Soul Writing Method. She believes that everyone has a unique story within them, a story their soul yearns to tell. SOPHIA'S TALE is a story sung from her soul.
