Sub-genre: ,

Julia Stone is a writer of psychological suspense and her debut, HER LITTLE SECRET, was published by Orion-Dash in September 2021. Her second novel THE ACCIDENT was published October 2022.

Julia has a background in business psychology and previously worked as a director/partner in two management consultancies. She’s also a registered psychotherapist and coaching psychologist. (And she’d like to reassure you that she is nothing like the therapist in her novel!)

Following cancer treatment, she decided to take a break from the business world and direct her energies towards her creative side, studying art, then script and novel writing. She now runs her own coaching and therapy business part-time, where she helps other creative people work on the emotional challenges and limiting beliefs that are getting in the way of their writing or artistic ambitions. She also runs classes in her ceramic studio where local friends get the chance to get creative with clay and once a week she volunteers at a centre for the disabled teaching ceramics.

She lives in rural Suffolk with her partner and varying numbers of ducks, muntjac and moorhens.
