Sally J Morgan was born in the Welsh mining town of Abertyleri. Her childhood was nomadic, following her father’s career in the motor trade across the UK. She studied painting in Sheffield and at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. After graduating, life was a series of adventures and freelance projects. She was an archaeological digger, published cartoon strips, exhibited art, and lived from hand to mouth until she got a job as an art school lecturer. Later, she moved to New Zealand to teach at Massey University in Wellington. She lives in Berhampore with her wife, author and artist Jess Richards.
