Katharine Tiernan

Katharine Tiernan is a Northumbrian by birth and spent many childhood afternoons on the shores of Lindisfarne. She studied English Literature at York University and worked as a teacher and community artist. By the turn of the millnnium, both Katharine and her Australian husband were hankering for the wide-open spaces of the north and moved back to Northumberland. Her novels, set in the Anglo-Saxon world of early Christianity, reflect her interests in literature, spirituality and the inspirational landscapes of the north.
