About

For as long as she can remember, Imogen Rose has dreamtstories. Stories that she could, would, continue from night to night, from dreamto dream. So, going to bed was never an issue, just an anticipation of thestory to come.

   Imogen. was born in a small townin Sweden and moved to London in her twenties. After obtaining a PhD inimmunology from Imperial College, she moved with her family to New Jersey,where she has been based for the past ten years. Although storytelling is herreal passion, she has only now decided to share her stories by publishing herfirst work of fiction, PORTAL.

   PORTAL would have remained in herimagination, to be shared only with her daughter, Lauren, had Lauren notinsisted that she wrote it down. In the course of a month, Imogen typed whileLauren waited eagerly by the printer for the pages to appear, and a novel tookshape.

   The warm reception PORTAL hasreceived has encouraged Imogen to continue with the story and the PortalChronicles will continue with EQUILIBRIUM, due to be published Summer 2010.
