The book signing will take place after the event.

Flora is 20 and lives in Highland Perthshire, Scotland. Having worked as a gallery assistant, researcher, photographer, costume seamstress and waitress she likes to keep busy. Currently however she has returned to her favourite pastime: writing. And cooking. And photographing. This is the first time she has published her work since creating and editing the local primary school newspaper, aged 9. No pressure.
