Rosie Talbot is the author of Sixteen Souls as well as being a big deal on booktok… but you know the drill, we comfort creatures crew just don't really care about that. We're far more interested in hearing about her sensational cat names, the badgers in her garden and magical white Narnia deer of the British countryside. If you like cottage core, ghost pets and wonderful writer women with modern Disney princess energy then you'll love Rosie as much as we do! Also very small warning we do say "Sh*t" a few times, but we had to leave it in un-bleeped as it is technically a name. Find more Rosie at www.rosietalbot.co.uk  or @Merrowchild on social media!

She's a Venice dwelling New York Native and her debut novel With Fire In Their Blood is out now for your reading pleasure.
