Meet the Author


Ivy Linwood

Storyteller, dreamer, and keeper of the hearth flame.


Beneath the name Ivy Linwood is a quiet love for the timeless things — books that feel like home, the scent of tea and parchment, and the way stories have always been a kind of magic.

Ivy writes gentle, heartwarming tales inspired by the rhythms of nature, the changing of the seasons, and the small acts of care that turn a house into a home. Her work celebrates the ordinary enchantments of daily life — the hum of the kettle, the flicker of candlelight, the way kindness lingers like warmth on the air.

Her stories, including The Little Hearthwitch and Yuletide Gifts, are born from the belief that children (and grown-ups, too) need stories that soothe the spirit — tales that remind us of light, love, and belonging.

When she’s not writing, Ivy can often be found tending her garden, watching the seasons turn, or walking with her corgi, Duchess, who occasionally appears in her stories as herself.

“Stories are a kind of hearthfire — they don’t just warm us, they invite us to gather close.”

Coming Soon This November — Yuletide Gifts: A Hearthblossom Tale


The hearth is glowing, the snow is falling, and Hearthblossom is back with a brand-new winter adventure just in time for the Yuletide season.

In Yuletide Gifts, Hearthblossom decides that this year’s presents will be made by hand — mittens crocheted loop by gentle loop, golden Yule bread braided with care, a rosemary-scented beeswax candle, star-shaped seed ornaments for the birds, and even fresh hay to keep the barnyard warm.

With Duchess curled close by and her little cottage filled with cozy magic, Hearthblossom sets out to share love with her whole valley. This gentle, heartwarming tale celebrates the joy of giving, the warmth of community, and the sweet simplicity of handmade traditions.

Perfect for families who love nature, winter stories, and curling up with a beautifully illustrated picture book.

More details coming soon — stay tuned! ❄️✨
