"The best writers are part-librarian and part-swashbuckler. At
least that seems to be the career path followed by Ian C. Douglas.
After a nerdy childhood spent in the company of Tolkien, Lovecraft,
and a certain Time Lord, Ian ran away to see the world. This quest
got him in countless scrapes, before finding himself teaching
English in East Asia. After ten years of hard grammar, he returned
to his native England, and graduated with an MA Distinction in
Creative Writing. Since then he has written everything from online
computer games to apps for children. Several of his stories have
won prizes and he was a finalist in the Independent on Sunday’s
writing competition. Ian is a children’s history author and visits
schools with bloodcurdling tales of the past. His writing has
appeared at the V&A’s Toy Museum.
Ian lives near Sherwood Forest with his wife and children. When
he’s not daydreaming about Martian landscapes, he teaches creative
writing and writes theatre reviews. Interests include origami,
astronomy and wearing silly hats."
