Author Bio: Sylvia Bishop

Sylvia Bishop spent an entire childhood reading fiction, dreaming up stories, and pretending. She then tried very hard to get to grips with the real world by studying politics and going in to social science research. This was a shock. Thankfully, she discovered improvised comedy at university, which allowed her to carry on making up stories for at least thirty percent of her waking hours. Now she writes her stories down, preferably by lamp-light with tea. She only ever really writes the bad ones: the good ones write themselves without warning, generally when she was planning to go to bed. She lives in London, where she continues to work in research and is one half of improvised comedy duo the Peablossom Cabaret.
