Georgia Byng grew up outside Winchester, near the River Itchen, in England. She has three naughty brothers and a sister. Georgia has always enjoyed acting, performing and writing songs and poems. At college she studied speech and drama, and worked as an actor and children's entertainer. Eventually Georgia found time to draw, paint and finally, she began to write. Her first stories were in comic strip, a medium which she worked with for five years. The Sock Monsters was her first published book in 1995—a comic strip story for 5-7 year olds.
She lives in London with the artist Marc Quinn, her beautiful, funny daughter, Tiger, and a chatterbox called Lucas who's three. Georgia made several trips to India while writing Molly Moon's Hypnotic Time Travel Adventure. There she rode an elephant, gave a baby elephant a bath, and got knocked over by a cow.
