Julia Knight biography
Julia Knight was born in 'ooh look what's that over there?'. When struck down with ME in 2004 she took up writing as a defence against daytime TV and found she couldn't give up the habit. Always fascinated with fantasy and sci fi since that first delve into Lord of the Rings, it remains one of her favourite books, to the point she has a tattoo of the Rohirrim flag. Other favourites include CJ Cherryh, especially the Chronicles of Morgaine, Terry Pratchett, Robert E Howard and Jim Butcher. When not writing she likes motorbikes, watching wrestling (it’s the muscles, sweat and baby oil combo) and exploring new ways to get a giggle out of life. Julia is a member of the T Party writers' group. Her first book, Ilfayne's Bane, is released in autumn 2009 in the USA.
Ilfayne's Bane has been shortlisted, in the Fantasy Romance category, for a 2010 EPIC Award. The Electronically Published Internet Connection (EPIC) honours the finest electronically published books of the year and the winners will be announced at the EPIC Award Banquet during EPICon 2010.
