As a six-year-old Lindy dreamed of being a ballerina. At ten she decided she wanted to be a writer too. Then life happened, as it does. She taught English literature for a while, and got a degree in psychology. She started teaching dance on the North Shore after emigrating from South Africa in 1997. And then a little crisis a few years ago saw her husband putting her and her laptop on a plane to Las Vegas. The resulting award-winning novel, It Never Stays In Vegas, introduced her to the most fantastic women a girl could ever hope to meet, as she visited book clubs, spoke to women’s organisations, and continued her research. Her second book, Tutus, Tiaras and Tassels (due in early 2012), was responsible for her ungainly entry into the burlesque arena…and the birth of Luna Blue (her much sexier alter-ego). And while it’s high heels instead of pointe shoes, and a corset instead of a tutu, she finally, 42 years after first wanting to be one, is a dancer. And of course, her childhood dream of being a writer also came true. She continues to teach dance and yoga to people both big and small, and 2012 will bring some exciting new workshops as she incorporates her newfound passion into her ever-changing world. She still shares her home with her long-suffering husband and children, who have learnt to roll their eyes when she’s not looking. Life works in mysterious ways indeed.

Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from Lindy Hughes
Good things don’t come to those who wait. To get the really good things you have to think big, work hard…and have a massive melt-down. Then, while everyone is cowering in the corner, trying to recover from the havoc you have wreaked, you reach out, grab your dream with both hands, reel it in, and clutch it to your chest as tightly as you can.
