Misha Herwin is a writer of books for adults and children. Her novels cover a variety of genres from contemporary women's fiction to family saga and time-slip. Fascinated by time, she also writes short stories which have been published in anthologies in the US and the UK. Misha runs workshops in museums, libraries and schools, and is one of the founders of 6x6, a quarterly event where writers come to strut their stuff to an appreciative audience. In her free time she reads, attempts to keep her garden in order and bakes. Her speciality is muffins, though her scones are pretty good too.
