Elizabeth Kay is the daughter of a Polish father and an English mother. She originally went to art school, and she is also an illustrator. She has an MA in Creative Writing, and does some teaching and editing. During a varied writing career - from radio plays and short stories to poetry and novels for both adults and children - she has won a number of prizes, including the Cardiff International Poetry Competition and the Canongate Prize for short stories.

“You're not standing on your head! Have a cookie. - Grimspite in Jinx on the Divide”
Elizabeth Kay, Jinx on the Divide

“perhaps,thought Felix,that's what magic is--physics with a different twist to it.
my world just hasn't discovered the twist.”
Elizabeth Kay, Back to the Divide

“Are you frightened of me?' asked Ironclaw. 'No. Why should I be?' 'I'm very fierce,' said the brazzle, with some pride. 'All brazzles are fierce. They have to be, they guard hoards of gold. And they peck people's eyes out. Only when necessary, you understand.' 'Have you ever pecked someone's eyes out?' Ironclaw looked sheepish. 'No. But I could if I wanted to.' Felix smiled.”
Elizabeth Kay, The Divide
