Lee Barwood
Bio: A lifetime of storytelling and music
As
a child she told or wrote stories, sang, and played guitar. As an adult
-- well, things haven?t changed all that much, except that the guitar
has been joined by harps and other instruments, and the stories have
gotten longer (and are told to a wider audience than nieces, nephews,
and teddy bears).
Fantasy, fairy tales, and horror stories have
always been a mainstay of Lee?s interests; that holds true now in both
writing and music, as she draws on traditional tunes for inspiration in
fiction and melody.
