Josephine O’Reilly

Agent: Camille Burns

Josie has loved books and writing for as long as she can remember.  As a committed daydreamer, much of her time is spent in imaginary worlds, and this has led to some of her best story writing.

She has had short stories published in The London Magazine and Writers’ Forum and has been longlisted for the Bath Children’s Novel Award 2021 and the Exeter Novel Award 2020, shortlisted for the Wells Festival of Literature 2021 Book for Children Competition and selected as a Readers’ Favourite in the WriteMentor Novel in Development Award 2021.

Josie has a BA in English Literature from the University of the West of England.  She now lives in Surrey with her English teacher husband, two children and naughty dog.
