Imagine spending 27 years in prison, in an 8 x 5 room with a metal bucket as a lavatory, and being subjected to manual labour - all because you spoke out against racism and insisted that all people be treated equally. Twenty seven years of loneliness, unable to see family and friends, unable to attend even the funeral of one's mother and one's son. No Christmases. No birthdays. No hugs. No words of comfort.

Author, illustrator, and dentist, Ramya Julian finished her first novel at the age of ten and she avers it was very well received, though it was read only by her brother. She has all the hobbies of a maiden Victorian aunt - reading, writing, painting, crocheting, knitting and sewing, and the temperament of one. When she's not guilt-tripping her two daughters into good behaviour, she can be found devouring books, crafting poems and puns, and chuckling at her own witticisms. She grew up in India and now lives with her husband and their two daughters in London.She has experienced so much joy through the enchanting artistry of many authors and creators, that she aspires to share at least some of it through her writing.For more of her work, see www.ramyajulian.com
