Vanessa McKay writes women's fiction that sits at the intersection of the heart and the everyday. Her four novels - Allison, Bali Retreat, When Lucy Came Down from the Ferris Wheel, and Love Heals the Heart - follow women at turning points: the kind of moments that ask us to look honestly at who we are and who we still want to become.Based in Perth, Western Australia, Vanessa also runs The Wise Woman Writes, a creative writing community offering workshops and retreats for women in midlife. She believes deeply in the power of story - both the ones we read and the ones we dare to tell about
