Lucia worked as a journalist and editor for more that 20 years before plying her trade in the dark arts of publicity.

She is the co-founder of Ravengate Publishing where she works with emerging and established writers on fiction, non-fiction, cookery, nutrition, health and wellbeing, and children's titles.

She is particularly interested in alternative lifestyles and practices. When she is not conjuring up new projects, she can be found hedgerow foraging with her son, harvesting wild foods with which to experiment.
