Anne Charnock

Anne Charnock's writing career began in journalism; her articles appeared in the Guardian, New Scientist, International Herald Tribune, and Geographical. She was educated at the University of East Anglia, where she studied environmental sciences, and at the Manchester School of Art. She travelled widely as a foreign correspondent and spent a year trekking through Egypt, Sudan, and Kenya. In her fine art practice, she tried to answer the questions "What is it to be human? What is it to be a machine?" and ultimately she decided to write fiction as another route to finding answers. http://annecharnock.com
