Debbie Johnson – About, Bio, Books

Debbie Johnson is an award-winning author who lives and works in Liverpool, where she divides her time between writing, caring for a small tribe of children and animals, and not doing the housework. She writes romance, fantasy and crime, which is as confusing as it sounds!

She worked as a journalist for many years, until she decided it would be more fun to make up her own stories than to tell other people’s.

Debbie Johnson Writer

After trying her hand at pretty much every genre of writing other than Westerns and spy dramas, she now specialises in creating uplifting women’s fiction that seems to make people laugh and make people cry, often at the same time.

Her books focus on the things that really matter to most of us – love, family, community and getting by with a little help from our friends. They include The A-Z of Everything and the hugely successful Comfort Food Cafe series.

Her best-selling books for HarperCollins include The Birthday That Changed EverythingSummer at the Comfort Food CaféChristmas at the Comfort Food Café, Cold Feet at Christmas, and Pippa’s Cornish Dream.

Debbie JohnsonDebbie also writes urban fantasy, set in modern-day Liverpool. Dark Vision and the follow-up Dark Touch are published by Del Rey UK, and earned her the title ‘a Liverpudlian Charlaine Harris’ from the Guardian.

Debbie has now sold more than 1,000,000 copies of her books and is published in the USA, France, Germany, Sweden, Holland, Turkey, Italy and Ukraine. Two of her books – The A-Z of Everything and Never Kiss A Man in a Christmas Sweater – have been optioned for film/TV.
