For most of her working life in publishing, Anne has had a foot in both camps as a writer and an editor, moving from book publishing to magazines and then freelancing in both.Having edited both fiction and narrative non-fiction, she has also had short stories published in a variety of magazines including Bella and Candis and is the author of seven non-fiction books. Telling stories is Anne's first love and nearly all her short fiction as well as Dancers in The Wind and Death's Silent Judgement began with a real event followed by a 'what if ...'. That is also the case with the two prize-winning 99Fiction.net stories: Codewords and Eternal Love.Find her on twitter as @Anne_Coates1
