Vashti Hardy

Biography

Vashti Hardy lives in Sussex with her husband and three teens. She was previously a primary school teacher, and has a special interest in children’s writing, especially free-writing. Vashti also works within digital marketing and is an alumni member and writing buddy of The Golden Egg Academy.

I love tales of exploring and fantasy adventure, and have always been fascinated by real life adventurers from history such as Ernest Shackleton and Amelia Earhart. I love to get out and about in nature whenever I can, but I must admit my favourite exploring and adventuring takes place in my imagination.
