Victoria Williamson

Victoria Williamson is an award-winning author from Glasgow, Scotland who has worked as an educator in a number of different countries, including as an English teacher in China, a secondary school science teacher in Cameroon, a teacher trainer in Malawi, and an additional support needs teacher in the UK.

Victoria writes and edits books for the education company Twinkl. She spends the rest of her time writing novels for children and creepy tales for adults, and visiting schools, libraries and literary festivals to give author talks and run creative writing workshops. When not writing or talking about books, she’s often to be found up to her knees in mud on an archaeological dig or tangled up in a ball of wool playing with a crochet hook.

Her favourite time of year is autumn, when mists descend on the Scottish moors and eerie stories come whispering on the wind on dark evenings.
