Nicole Kennedy grew up in Essex. She was the first person in her family to go to university, and won a place to study Law at Bristol. During Nicole's second maternity leave she began writing poems and rhymes on motherhood and family life, which she posted to her blog 'The Brightness Of These Days'. She completed her first novel during her third maternity leave (because by then it was easier than leaving the house).
Nicole lives in Kent with her husband and three sons. You can find her on Instagram @nicole_k_kennedy and Twitter @nicolekkennedy.
