About this author

Andrea Downing has spent most of her life in the UK where she received an M.A. from the University of Keele in Staffordshire. She married and raised a beautiful daughter, and stayed on to teach and write, living in the Derbyshire Peak District, the English Lake District and the Chiltern Hills before finally moving into London. During this time, family vacations were often on guest ranches in the American West, where she and her daughter have clocked up some 17 ranches to date. In addition, she has traveled widely throughout Europe, South America, and Africa, living briefly in Nigeria. In 2008 she returned to the city of her birth, NYC, but frequently exchanges the canyons of city streets for the wide open spaces of the West. Her love of hor...more


alicetrego2When I first joined Women Writing the West in 2011, the name of Alice Trego seemed to be everywhere. Not only had Alice served as the group’s President, but she had also held positions as Treasurer, Newsletter Editor, Catalog Editor and VP Conference. In addition to giving her time in these demanding posts, Alice had also spearheaded the group’s LAURA awards—their short story competition for me...

Beth Hi Andrea,
Thanks for sending a friend request to this fellow Goodreads author!


Andrea Downing Thanks Arletta. I think my 'to read' list is beginning to look like it may last two lifetimes. Let's hope not! Am currently reading John Irving's 'Last Night in Twisted River.' For anyone who's an Irving fan, beware...it's a complicated tale but it is about being a writer!


Arletta Dawdy Welcome to Goodreads, Andi. It's a great place to review what we read. I just added Mary Sharratt's Daughters of the Witching Hill to my "currently reading" list. It's not about our West as it is set in England of about 1620. Mary is a lively and unusual writer.
