Annabel Campbell writes fantasy with fierce female characters and disaster wizards, and believes everything is improved by dragons. She lives in a tiny village in Scotland, where most of her neighbours are sheep. She has a PhD in cardiovascular science, and when not making things up for a living, she works as a Medical Writer. Her debut novel, The Outcast Mage, is out now.


We had great fun chatting with Annabel and hearing that The Outcast Mage grew from a story she wrote when she was 14! Plus, we hear how she made the scary decision to change agents before she had a publishing deal (and how it all worked out!) and talk about why special editions are such a big thing in fantasy publishing.


(Annabel also asked us to note that Chris Simmons, who drew character art for her, worked on a graphic novel called Prehistoria!)
