About me

Photograph of Lu Hersey in a tree

​I’ve been interested in myth and magic as far back as I can remember. The zone where something outside normal reality takes over, a place where you have to walk an edge.

In my experience, magic is mostly very subtle, made up of brief glimpses of something extraordinary, strange synchronicities, and those rare, heart-stopping, did that really just happen? moments. You can choose to ignore these things, or try to explain them away with science. I choose to observe, acknowledge and note them - and find the more I do this, the more frequently they happen.

Whatever you believe, my experience of how magic works informs my writing. If it doesn’t feel authentic, it’s not working.

I currently live in Glastonbury in the UK  with my partner, a very loud cat, and I have four grown up children.
