Virginia MacGregor

Virginia Macgregor was brought up in Germany, France and England by a mother who never stopped telling stories.

From the moment she was old enough to hold a pen, Virginia set about writing her own, often late into the night. She was named after two great women, Virginia Wade and Virginia Woolf, in the hope she would be a writer and a tennis star.

She never did make it to Wimbledon but her dream of becoming a writer has come true.
