Saci Lloyd was born in Manchester, but raised in Anglesey where she spent a lot of time lost in nature or down by the shore.

Saci returned to Manchester as an undergraduate, but soon quit University for a life of glamour. At various points in the glitz she has worked as a very bad cartoonist, toured the States in a straightedge band, run an interactive media team at an advertising agency,   co-founded a film company and finally wound up as head of media at NewVIc. She's now stepped down from that post, but continues her association with the college.

Her first novels, The Carbon Diaries series came out September 2010 to critical acclaim and have been optioned by Company Pictures. They have been translated into fifteen languages.                Photo by Emli Bendixen

 Her new book, Momentum was released on June 2nd and looks set to follow suit.  Everything Starts Right Here, Right Now!
