Benita J. Prins

I've been writing since I was knee-high to a grasshopper! I still fondly remember writing about “Lucy Larson” when I was six or seven! My writing tastes, however, have changed dramatically since then. My busy imagination fuels my love for fantasy – the seeds of which appeared when I read J.R.R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings at the age of eleven (still my favourite book!). I love to be inventing and feel at a loss when I don’t have a fantasy location to flesh out. When I’m not writing, I keep busy with my music (piano, organ, singing… especially singing), filmmaking, and increasing my already enormous book collection.

Some of my favourite authors are J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, Michael O'Brien, John Buchan, Jane Austen, and Charlotte Brontë.
