In her twenties, Lucy was working her dream job in film casting, rubbing shoulders with the stars and mortifying herself in front of celebs. But when her father’s dementia worsened, Lucy had to quit that life to become his carer. She turned to writing as a creative outlet and today she is an award-winning YA novelist.
I’ve known Lucy for twenty years and have always been inspired by her resilience, positivity, creative talent and her lens on the world. Her story is a reminder of how life’s unexpected twists, turns and losses can lead us onto new paths.
