Anna Ryan

Following her mother's passing, Anna found a box of ‎sepia-coloured letters pertaining to her mother's ‎youth. Upon reading them, Anna discovered that her ‎maternal grandfather was not her biological ‎grandparent and that her mother's childhood was very ‎different to her own, as not all children have mothers ‎who love them. After conducting some research on ‎her family history, Anna decided to write this story to ‎honour her mother's rather unusual young life. Anna ‎graduated from the University of Melbourne with a ‎Bachelor's Degree in History and English and a ‎Diploma in Education. This is Anna's first novel.‎
