After a ten year career as a music journalist for a German pop magazine, Hattie became the first in-house writer at Comic Relief, working in a team on comedy projects with Richard Curtis, as well as transcribing the stories of project users including Rwandan widows, women experiencing domestic violence and people living with dementia. Her two novels were both published by RedDoor. Cinema Lumiere topped the Amazon fiction charts and her second novel The Spectacular Vision of Oskar Dunkelblick was described as “a beautifully crafted tale about a young man’s spiritual transformation.”
