About Elizabeth Hegarty ( author from river salt)

Elizabeth Hegarty's is Originally from the UK, Elizabeth Hegarty's family live in Auckland. When she was seven they have always been a very bookish family, and with an editor for a father Liz could never get away with any  misunderstands or misplaced apostrophes. Liz went to university, studying French and English literature, and after a few years Liz went overseas travel in Europe, Liz and then-boyfriend Liam returned to New Zealand to settle down and get married. Her beautiful daughter Molly was born in 1995.

Liz worked as a business analyst for the past 12 or more years, in IT and corporate strategy, across banking and retail. In 2006 Liam and Liz decided that they'd deserved their time in the rat-race, and moved down to a tiny place called Canvas town, at the foot of the Marlborough Sounds. They now live in secluded valley, with a river running behind the house and a 50-minute drive between them and the nearest supermarket. Liz has said that the change has been a wonderful experience, and has given her time to focus on writing and painting, although she still does analysis on a semi-freelance basis for several New Zealand retailers.
