Author Liz Kessler went to Loughborough University and studied English. She grew up in Southport, located in the North West of England and has lived in both Cheshire and Manchester. She has worked as a journalist and a teacher (teaching Media Studies and English and has run some Creative Writing Courses), and has her MA in Creative Writing from Manchester Metropolitan University. After she took a year off so that she could travel all over Europe in a camper van, she lives in Cornwall.

She lives near the sea and has always loved the ocean. This is what partly inspires her to write about mermaids. She likes to look at the beach and just think about where Emily Windsnap may want to go next.

The “Emily Windsnap” books have been translated into 25 languages, and have appeared on the New York Times bestsellers list. They have sold over five million copies around the world.

Starting when Liz was about eight years old, she loved writing poetry, and decided to become a poet when she grew up. Her first piece of fame came to her when a poem she wrote, called “Jinx’s Shop” was published in the local paper when she was nine. Liz grew up with her mom, dad, sister, and brother.

Liz loves writing and always has. She also likes to encourage other people in writing their own stories, too.

Despite it being her job, she views writing as a sort of hobby. Her next favorite hobby is photography. She takes a ton of pictures and there is nothing more she likes than just on a rock somewhere with her camera, tea in a hot flask, and the gorgeous sunrise coming up over the horizon.

Liz also likes surfing and body boarding, things she is not very good at, and can get scared of big waves but still likes having a go at them. She also enjoys kayaking, fishing, swimming, and rowing. Basically anything that involves playing on or in or even near the sea.

Liz writes young adult fiction, children’s fiction, and young adult fantasy. Her debut novel “The Tail of Emily Windsnap” was released in the year 2001.

“The Tail of Emily Windsnap” is the first novel in the “Emily Windsnap” series, which was released in the year 2001. Emily Windsnap, twelve years old, can only remember living on a boat. Oddly enough, her mom, for the same amount of time, has been anxious to keep her away from the water.

When Mom finally says she can take swimming lessons, Emily makes a stunning discovery. About the mysterious dad she has never met, her own identity, and the thrilling possibilities and perils that shimmer deep under the water’s surface.

“Emily Windsnap and the Monster from the Deep” is the second novel in the “Emily Windsnap” series, which was released in the year 2004. Picture an island that is set in a glittering blue sea, one that sparkles with white sand and palm trees. It is a secret place where the merfolk and humans live with each other. To Emily Windsnap, her new home is a perfect one. Until Emily ruins it all by waking up some legendary sea monster that is known as the kraken from its century long sleep.

Liz created characters that are going to always have a unique place in some readers’ hearts. The plot made some cry as well as smile, and Liz’s writing is very fresh, and made fans wish, dream, and believe. It takes them out of reality and given them their own spot in the story.

“Emily Windsnap and the Castle in the Mist” is the third novel in the “Emily Windsnap” series, which was released in the year 2006. Emily Windsnap finds an old diamond ring during a class hunt to find trinkets. How is she supposed to know that the ring makes up half of the key to unlock an ancient curse made by Neptune himself?

Now with the ring stuck on her finger, Emily finds she is under a new curse: in just a few days’ time, she is going to stop being half-mermaid and half-human and will have to say goodbye to one of her parents forever. Will she be able to locate the other missing ring that will break the curses off her? Is there somebody that can help her out before it is too late?

The plot and writing in this one made some readers cry quite a bit, especially by the end of the story. The book is very engaging and it hooks you without ever letting you go for very long.

“Emily Windsnap and the Siren’s Secret” is the fourth novel in the “Emily Windsnap” series, which was released in the year 2009. Emily is filled with delight when her family goes back to Brightport. Their attempts to follow Neptune’s orders to bring merfolk and humans together seems to be a hopeless one.

Emily, who was thrown out of mermaid school and scorned by Mandy Rushton an old enemy, goes off to find the lost sirens that were banished by Neptune to some top secret undersea cavern.

It is great to see each of these characters get more and more mature as the books go. Readers liked that Emily is finally able to not feel like an outcast this time around. Liz does a wonderful job of bringing all of the characters together and woven their lives together in this story.
