Mhairi Blyth

Mhairi was born in Kirkcaldy, Fife but spent much of her childhood in the Middle East. She started writing poems when she was ten as a form of escapism and began writing short stories in her mid-thirties. After many years moving between England and Scotland, she has settled back in Fife with her husband, daughter, grandson, parents, 3 dogs and two cats.

She splits her time between looking after her family and writing, and in her free time likes to read, cross-stitch and the occasional nap.

Mhairi’s revealing autobiography, ‘Ascent of a Woman’, will be published by Chiselbury on 1 March 2025
