Together with her grandmother she often went dancing with the fairies under huge fig trees or built forts in lush gardens where her imagination would run free.She developed a love of mythology, history and politics inspired by her mother. Victoria studied European history and politics as an undergraduate at university and went on to complete a Masters and Doctorate in Political Science, International Relations, specializing in Central Asia and the Middle East.For a long time she analysed world politics by day, as either a journalist for The Epoch Times or as an analyst, and at night she became a narrator of the many adventures of a family of faeries who live in the amazing world of her backyard for her children. As her children grew older they continually asked for her to share her stories with the wider world. The result of this is The Chronicles of Dandelion and Ash.view less
