The Year of Taking Chances

Biographie de Lucy Diamond

Lucy Diamond grew up in Nottingham and went to university in Leeds where she studied English Literature. After graduating, she worked in publishing and at the BBC, and in her spare time she began writing children's books under a number of different pen names. Two small children later, an evening class in creative writing motivated her to try a longer piece of fiction and explore some of her own feelings about motherhood.
This eventually became a novel, Any Way You Want Me, and she was thrilled when Pan Macmillan made her an offer of publication. Now the author of fourteen novels and a Sunday Times bestselling author, Lucy writes with warmth and honesty about the joy and surprises, as well as the complications, that love, family and friendships can bring. Lucy now lives in Bath with her husband and three children and writes full-time.
