Isabel Ashdown was born in London and grew up in East Wittering on the south coast of England. She is the author of five novels, a Royal Literary Fund Fellow, and a member of the Society of Authors. In 2014 she was Writer in Residence at the University of Brighton.

An extract from her debut novel Glasshopper won The Mail on Sunday Novel Competition judged by Fay Weldon and the late Sir John Mortimer, going on to be named as one of the best books of 2009 in the London Evening Standard.[1]

She went on to release a further three novels with Myriad Editions[2] before more recently signing with Trapeze Books, an imprint of the Orion Publishing Group. Her latest novel Little Sister (2017) sees the author move into the territory of psychological thriller.

In 2014 her essay Voice and the Inescapable Complexity of Experience was published in Karen Steven's academic anthology Writing a First Novel (Palgrave MacMillan, 2014).
