Julie Mayhew

Julie Mayhew is an actress turned writer who still acts but mostly writes.  Her debut novel, Red Ink, was published by Hot Key Books in February 2013 and will come out in paperback in June 2013. She’s just finished writing her second book, Mother Tongue, with the support of the Arvon/Jerwood Mentoring Scheme.

Julie’s most recent play for BBC Radio 4, A Shoebox Of Snow, was nominated for Best Audio Drama at the 2012 BBC Audio Drama Awards. Her short stories are published in the UK and US, and her collected stories have twice been short-listed for the Scott Prize.
