Moïra Fowley Doyle

Moïra Fowley is half-French, half-Irish and made of equal parts feminism, whimsy and Doc Martens. She lives in Dublin where she writes magic realism, reads tarot cards and raises witch babies.

Moïra’s first novel, The Accident Season, was shortlisted for the 2015 Waterstones Children’s Book Prize and the North East Teen Book Awards, nominated for the Carnegie Medal and won the inaugural School Library Association of Ireland Great Reads Award. It received two starred reviews and sold in ten territories. Her second novel, Spellbook of the Lost and Found, received a starred review from School Library Journal and was shortlisted for the 2017 Irish Book Awards. Her third novel, All the Bad Apples, received a starred review from Booklist and was shortlisted for the 2019 Irish Book Awards and the Childrens Books Ireland awards 2020. Moïra is also one of the contributors to Stripes Books’ Proud anthology (2019), compiled by Juno Dawson.
