Eve Ainsworth

Eve Ainsworth always dreamed of being a writer and spent most of her childhood telling stories to herself in her back garden (leading her neighbours to decide she was eccentric). She now works in a large secondary school, supporting teenagers with their emotional and behavioural issues, whilst also concentrating on her writing. Above everything else she has never given up on her writing dream, despite being bitten by the self-doubt bug more times than can be healthy.
Eve has had competition success with her short stories, most recently in Prima and Writers Forum. A short story has also been published in The Weekly News. Her previous Young Adult novel, The Art of Kissing Frogs, was shortlisted for the Greenhouse Funny Prize (June 2012). Her first Young Adult Novel - Seven Days - will be published by Scholastic in Feb 2015.
Eve lives in West Sussex with her husband and two crazy children.
