Lari has lived most of her life in Scotland, a writer and storyteller, she has written a number of books with a fairy tale link.

Her first series The Fabled Beast Chronicles starts with 'First Aid for Fairies' where a girl finds an injured animal but it's not one she can take to the local vet. So begins a series filled with mythical creatures, enchantments and dangerous enemies.

Her latest series The Spellchasers Trilogy launches with 'The Beginners Guide to Curses' sees our heroine cursed to turn into a hare whenever she hears a dog bark. It's only when she try to lift the curse by attending a special course for young cursed people that the problems really start.

Lari has also written riveting versions of traditional tales from around the world. If it's a straight re-telling you fancy then check out 'Serpents and Werewolves', 'Winter's Tales' or 'Girls, Goddesses and Giants'.
