Adele
is currently pursuing her B.A. in Archaeology through the University of
Leicester, England.
She is fascinated by all things ancient: languages, peoples, history, culture,
music, ballads, and especially folklore. As part of this she is well into the long process of learning
Gaelic and also delves into ancient Gaelic.
She began writing
her fantasy novel in 2005, Wolf's Bard: book one
of Greenwood Shadows, and has continued to hone her skills as an expert
fiction author.
Adele has Scottish, Irish, Welsh, Cornish, English and Norse
blood in her family line.
She is a member of the band
Wren Song as a traditional harpist, singer, and educator. Adele also
plays tinwhistle, recorder, and bodhran.
Her harp is a 24 string Brother Maynard model made by Dan
Speer at Argent Fox Music. It uses bronze-phosphor strings
in the Irish/Scottish Clarsach style.
For her singing,
Adele is a sean-nos style vocalist
specializing in Scottish, Irish, and Welsh songs in both the
native languages (Scots, Scots Gaelic, Irish Gaelic, and
Welsh) as well as English.
Adele's father, Robert,
is writing his own fantasy
novel based in ancient Cornwall, and you can
