Eleanor Brightwood is a British fantasy writer and folklorist from Cornwall, known for lyrical, place-rooted tales about inheritance, enchantment, and the quiet rebellions of caretakers and archivists. She studied English literature and folklore at the University of Exeter and worked as a librarian in Bath before writing full time. Her work has been shortlisted for the British Fantasy Award and the Kitschies, and she has contributed essays on regional myth and memory magic to several folklore journals. She lives in Bristol with her partner and a perpetually muddy terrier, and spends her weekends collecting sea-glass, seed packets, and stories from the moor.
