About Me

Alexandra Orchard is a published author from the UK where she lives with her family by the sea (and 2 black cats, who she frequently posts on Instagram)
​
She started writing when she was 8, and hasn't stopped since. She has a Bachelor of Art in Creative Writing, and was previously shortlisted for a novel award by Sony and Malorie Blackman.
​
She has also been a part of the Creator and Paid programmes on writing site, Wattpad (she is no longer on the site) and has frequently mentored authors on the site through a community mentoring project via the site.
​
Alex writes contemporary romance, but always mixes it with extra elements, tending to favour writing normal people in extraordinary circumstances.
​​
In 2022, Alex's book The Burden of Us was traditionally published, and the book is now published on Amazon worldwide.
​​
As of 2025, Alex has publishing deals with Varus Publishing for 5 books (check out more under 'My Books' section of the site!)
