About the Author

Lee Su Ann started weaving stories since she was in high school, usually found scribbling in the shade of a tree under the watchful eyes of her school's majestic clock tower. The clock tower of St George's Girls' School in Penang would later be the inspiration and setting for her second novel, A Stitch in Time. She published her first short story when she was 16. After graduating with a Master of Science degree in Biomedical Sciences and a Diploma in Comprehensive Writing, she has since then been a test-tube baby scientist, a medical writer and an amateur actress /scriptwriter in her church's own stage production. Her first novel, The Curse, won a literary prize in 2005 and was later used as a literature textbook in Malaysian schools. She was also a runner-up in the Calistro Prize in 2013 and a health journalism award in 2014. She is married to her bestie and partner in crime, and enjoys creating stories for her playful twins.
