Carol Kerry-Green

Born in Hull, Yorkshire in 1960 Carol Kerry-Green began writing as a preteen. She states that she ‘grew up reading science fiction and fantasy and still loves a good fantasy novel to this day.’ Her writing has always explored the question ‘what if’?

Carol worked as a Professional Genealogist for fifteen years, and uses the research skills learnt then to the benefit of her books. Often local and family history are a large part of her fiction. During this period, she also wrote several articles for Family History Magazines and gave talks at Historical conferences.

After a hiatus in fiction writing for over twenty years, she returned to writing in 2017 when she joined a writer’s group in her home city. This led to her publishing her first book, which has been followed by five more since then.

Now running the writer’s group, she finds that it helps to focus her mind on her writing and working with other authors is a very rewarding activity.

Carol loves many genres including Urban Fantasy, Paranormal, Science Fiction, Fantasy, Historical fiction and crime, especially those set in the 1920s and 1930s.

Her work now is mostly in the Urban Fantasy & Paranormal Romance genres. Her latest release Robin in Winter is a MM Urban Fantasy set in York, involving shifters, physic gifts and vampires. This is book two in the Byrdes of York series and book three (Oleander's Path) out of a six book series is currently with her editor.

She has lived in her home city for most of her life, spending two years in York, where her recent series Byrdes of York is set. Returning to Hull, she settled down and married Steve Kerry in 1997. They live in the house they bought that year, with full bookshelves and three (sometimes) four cats, who think they rule the house. Steve is also an author, which is how the couple met when Steve attended a writer’s workshop Carol was running with friends.
