Beth Cowan-Erskine
Beth Cowan-Erskine is an American expat who married into a mad Scottish family with their own tartan and a family tree older than her home country. Using them as inspiration, she wrote her first novel during the coronavirus lockdown, hoping it would be enough to get her disinvited from the annual family walking holiday. Sadly, it backfired and led to long discussions of who would play whom in the film. After years of desperate pleading with the universe, she finally lives in the Scottish Highlands.
