Linda Anne Chapman[1] (born 15 January 1969 in Liverpool)[2] is a British writer, principally of series for younger children. She is particularly known for her fantasy books about unicorns, mermaids and magic and has co-authored books with Julie Sykes (Unicorn Academy, Mermaid Academy and Forever Homes), Michelle Misra, Lee Weatherly and Steve Cole. She also writes the Superpowers series as Alex Cliff (her own pseudonym).[3][4] She has written several of the series books published under the names Lucy Daniels, Jenny Dale, Daisy Meadows (Rainbow Magic), Rosie Banks (Secret Kingdom and Secret Princesses) Katie Chase (Little Princesses), Amber Castle (Spell Sisters), Astrid Foss (Snow Sisters), Tilda Kelly, Posy Diamond and Lauren Brooke, either as part of a collective pseudonym or as a ghostwriter. She has written "about 300" books. She currently lives in a Leicestershire village with her husband and three children.[1]
