Beth Morrey is an ex-TV producer who was behind shows you watched and loved, like The Secret Life of 4 Year Olds; shows you might not have watched but would enjoy, like 100 Year Old Drivers; and shows that you haven’t watched and maybe shouldn’t, like Sun, Sex & Suspicious Parents.
Since her early twenties, Beth has been trying to write a book. Her first attempt was a spin-off from Mary Poppins called ‘Sister Suffragette’, which was all about Winifred Banks’ adventures when she wasn’t at home singing. It’s probably for the best that it’s still in a drawer somewhere. Beth was previously shortlisted for the Grazia-Orange First Chapter award, and had her work published in the Cambridge and Oxford May Anthologies while at university. Saving Missy is her first full-length novel, written in a café in Highbury during maternity leave. It was a Sunday Times bestseller, and has sold in 16 countries.
Beth has a husband who is a radio presenter, and two sons who are very tiring. In her spare time, she enjoys running, cooking, and stroking her dog, who would rather be elsewhere.
