Miranda Reason grew up in an Anglo-German household, spending part of her childhood living in Hastings on the coast of Southern England and part in a small village in Bavaria. Alongside writing and reading, Miranda is passionate about films and film history. She works as a film restorer of classic German movies. Although now living in Germany, she still prefers English for writing and storytelling, thanks to all the classic and contemporary English children's books her dad read to her as a child. Day of Now is her debut novel.
