About me

I’m Bruna De Luca, children’s author and miniature ‘Scotalian’. I have been making up stories ever since I was wee, and have never outgrown children’s books.

A long, long time ago, I graduated from a university far, far away (well… Edinburgh) with a dissertation on Italian fairytales.

I am proud of my Italian heritage and lived there for many years, teaching children and adults to speak English with a Scottish twang. In 2014, I returned to the Scottish Borders, where I hope to live happily ever after.
