Lizzy Shannon's published works span many genres, including Celtic non-fiction, science fiction, stage, screenplays, and a children's picture book that was adapted into an animated movie. Born in Belfast, Northern Ireland, her career is as varied as the genres she writes. Staring out as a library assistant in a rural town, she moved on to study Theater Arts and Literature in London and toured the United Kingdom as a professional actress. Roles ranged from the goddess Hecate in Shakespeare's Macbeth to Gustav, the Amazing Dancing Bear in a clown troupe. Lizzy currently resides in the Pacific Northwest, and spends several months of the year with her family back in Northern Ireland.
