Maggie Jeffrey is the pen name of Lesley Wells. Although I now live in the beautiful city of Ely I was born in South West Scotland and lived there until 5 years ago.
For many years I worked as a bank cashier and then as a legal secretary. The colour fairies have been floating about in my mind for a long time, but now that I am retired they have finally made their escape.
The name Maggie Jeffrey is a tribute to my late mother who came from the Jeffrey family.
The fairies I think were planted in my brain by my elder daughter who was (and still is) a great fairy fan, and as a child spent many hours with her friend jumping off a wall behind our house trying to learn to fly. I live with my husband, Bob, in Ely where, although he is retired, he is a keen amateur artist who is beginning to sell quite a bit of his work. bobwells.co.uk a Scottish painter in the fens.
The books I have written so far are (I hope) the first in a series, and are beautifully illustrated by Angela D Warren, Primrose, South Africa. I hope you will like them and would be happy to have your feedback. Please also remember this is Fairyland and things happen there that would certainly not happen in the real world. It's magic!!!!
