Kim Kane was born in London, United Kingdom. Before October 2008, Kim wore high heels and worked exactly part-time as a lawyer and exactly part-time as a writer. In October 2008, Kim became the mother of twin boys and in these post-twin times she seems to spend a considerable part of her days stewing prunes and thinking about writing her next novel. Sadly, her shoes are orthopaedics. Kim also has two step-children aged 11 and 8 years, she doesn't cook or clean but she does like doing crafts and listening to stories. In short, she is a thoroughly modern mum in a thoroughly modern family. That's the way she sees it. Her offspring see it as haphazard parenting. Born and bred in Livorno, Italy, Lucia currently lives on the Gold Coast, where she works as a freelance illustrator specialising in children's books. Since her move to Australia in 2007 she has collaborated with Australian and English Publishers and has illustrated seventeen books, including Come Down Cat! (CBCA Honour Book and shortlisted in the Prime Minister Award, 2012) and the successful series Our Australian Girl. Lucia likes to create whimsical characters and dynamic compositions and she works with traditional techniques, mixing watercolour, pencil and acrylic. Her most recent books are Together Always, by Edwina Wyatt and The Ballad of Henry Hoplingsea, by Julia Hubery.
