Clare Thompson

Clare is a children’s author based in Northamptonshire.

After studying Film at university, she worked as a production co-ordinator in the television industry for several years, where she organised crews and made countless cups of tea for presenters. She now co-ordinates two young children, organises school bags and occasionally gets to drink a hot cup of tea herself! Clare is an alumni of the Golden Egg Academy and a Penguin WriteNow programme shortlistee. She takes inspiration from her OCD and anxiety, and hopes to improve representation for young people in these areas through her writing.
