Alys Einion Author

Alys Einion is the author of Inshallah (2014), Ash
(2018) and of several academic books, chapters and
articles. Born and brought up in the South Wales
Valleys, with a librarian for a mother, her first and
longest lasting love was books, and she made up her
mind to become a novelist at the age of seven. A
midwife and senior academic, equalities and queer
activist and polymath, Alys was the Editor-in-Chief of
the Practising Midwife Journal for four years, and also
teaches academic and creative writing. An avid reader
of fiction of all genres, Alys is also a pagan, vegan,
and an inclusive feminist. When she is not reading,
writing or working, Alys likes to cook, walk and camp
in the beautiful Scottish wilds with her partner, and
swim in the sea and lochs. Alys now lives in Scotland
with her adult son and enough books to finally qualify
as a library.
