Elizabeth Kay, born July 9, 1949 in London, is an English writer. She is the author of The Divide trilogy, a series of children's fantasy novels, originally published by Chicken House Press, then picked up by Scholastic Books
Biography
Before going to art school she attended Nonsuch High School for girls in Cheam. Then went to art school and in her mid-twenties started writing radio plays, which were broadcast on BBC Radio 4. She also wrote stories which were published in newspapers and magazines and broadcast on Capital Radio in London.
Kay has an MA (distinction) in creative writing from Bath Spa University, and has taught both creative writing and art for a number of years. She has illustrated several books and produced nearly all the artwork for her own website. An avid wildlife enthusiast, she has travelled extensively to places as diverse as the Ivory Coast, Borneo, Iceland and India.
She has won several awards, including the Cardiff International Poetry Competition for a sestina "Pond Life" and the Canongate Prize for her short story "Cassie". A chapbook of poetry, The Spirit Collection, was published in 2000.
If you're feeling lonely and if you're feeling blue and things are at their worst/If you know your history then just what I do: Sing a song about Elizabeth the First/ Some say she was a tyrant. She was mean to all her vassals/But then hey, I wasn't there. Maybe her vassals all were assholes/And her daddy left four step moms with the women that he wedded/And he got a little paranoid and had her mom beheaded/And her cousin tried to kill her so she locked her in a garrison/It makes your folks divorce seem pretty minor by comparison/Oh, Elizabeth, get some sleep/Take that crazy crown on off your head/The Spanish armada has been battled back to Spain/And now you run the middle ages from the middle of your bed/She had a lot of suitors. Lots of princes made a pass at her/I bet that once or twice she would make out with an ambassador/But the couriers and courtiers were uppity and boring/She had crushes on explorers but they always went exploring/So she never kept a king. She held her independence higher and/Her sexual frustration, she just took it out on Ireland/Oh, Elizabeth, get some sleep/Wipe that crazy frown on off your head/The Catholic insurgents are all lying in a ditch/And now you run the middle ages from the middle of your bed/And they named a colony after her/And they called it Virginia cuz she's the Virgin Queen/Which seems to me awfully personal/Oh, Elizabeth, get some sleep/Wipe those crazy tears on off your head/Your poets and your pirates they all like you as a friend/And you
