Author Bio

Polly James was born in Swansea, but now lives in Norwich, though she hasn't given up hope of moving home to Wales one day. She had a wide variety of different jobs before she began writing a blog called Mid-Wife Crisis under the pseudonym of Molly Bennett. The blog was later shortlisted for the Orwell Prize, and then became the basis for the novel Diary of an Unsmug Married. Polly is married, with two grown-up children and a large extended family, none of whom find her half as funny as she thinks she is.
