Author Holly Ringland has well and truly picked up the pen. In the past five years, she has published two novels – The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart and The Seven Skins of Esther Wilding, and she has just released her first non-fiction title, The House That Joy Built, which explores the transformative power of creative work. Meanwhile, the screen adaptation of The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart screened this year on Amazon Prime.

Holly's creativity and joy seem to radiate from her. But to courageously begin writing the stories she'd been longing to write her whole life, first she had release herself from the grip of fear.

Holly describes this life changing moment and how she sustains herself through the marathon of the work – to create stories that have now connected her with so many adoring readers.

WE HEART HOLLY RINGLAND.
