Dee Harrison was born in Nottingham, England, and brought up on the tales of Robin Hood and nearby Sherwood Forest. From this grew an abiding love of myths and legends. Dee went on to study Medieval History at Nottingham University where she developed an appreciation for the Chronicles and Romance Literature of the period. She subsequently had essays published in Historical Journals on the experiences of local noble families during the Wars of the Roses. Dee went on to teach History, whilst continuing her own studies in Theology, Psychology and Philosophy. She spent several years in Southern Africa before returning to the UK and retraining as a specialist Dyslexia teacher and assessor. Dee currently works at a large college supporting students with literacy and other difficulties, believing that everyone deserves the opportunity to pursue their dreams. Since childhood Dee has written stories and poems exploring alternative worlds of the past, present and future. She has had short fiction published in several anthologies, one of which, Fusion, was voted e-Festival of Words Anthology of 2014. Dee is also the author of The Firelord’s Legacy fantasy series, described by a Harper Collins reviewer as "a beautifully written piece". Dee’s latest project is a paranormal thriller set in an alternative Nineteenth Century Italy, the prequel to which can be found in her latest collection of short fiction Winterborn of Ligarra.
