    • Abstract:
      The article offers information on young adult author Siobhan Dowd. Dowd styled herself as a writer from the age of seven, when she began embroidering biblical stories as a Catholic school student in London. After university she went into publishing, and then to work for PEN, along the way writing columns, articles and short stories, and editing two anthologies. Her first novel, A Swift Pure Cry, has already been shortlisted for a number of prizes, and won Ireland's Eilís Dillon Award.
