Beverley was raised in the UK where she received her undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in literature. She has spent most of her professional life surrounded by books, and is a fiction and non-fiction writer. She moved to Paris, which she now calls home, and where she loves to experience the city, its culture, and its history as a flâneuse. In her free time, Beverley loves to visit Paris' museums and galleries, to spend days reading and writing in parks and cafes, learning about new subjects and skills, and sharing her knowledge with anyone who is curious enough to listen.
