Hello! My name is Helen Rygh-Pedersen and I am an author. 

​

Reading and writing are two things I have been heavily involved with from a young age. I could always be found with my nose in a book, especially on long car journeys, or with a notebook in hand. My mother often recounts how before I was even taught my letters I had "written" a story on a piece of paper at Kindergarten and when asked, could read every word of said story back to the teacher. 

​

Creative writing classes at school were my happy place.

​

So, it seems a shame that as I grew older and exams, university and work came along, that writing fell a little to the wayside (bar a wonderful summer at university where I rekindled that love affair once more- even it it was just a summer fling). 

​

Move on a couple of years and I am now living in Norway with my young family.  My husband is incredibly supportive of my longing to get back into writing and make it my career. 

​

I am currently working on an adult fantasy series. Book one; Waking Ursa Minor has just been published and I am currently writing the next installment.
