Libertad Ansola holds a PhD in Creative Writing from the University of Aberdeen where she was a recipient of the University’s New King’s Scholarship. She has published stories in a number of literary journals including Riptide Journal, Lucent Dreaming and Saltbush Review, and was short listed for the Aesthetica Creative Writing Award in 2022. Her work draws on her personal experience of growing up in rural northern Spain - it is an attempt to explore how the past echoes into the present and how family traumas, secrets, loyalties and betrayals persist down the years.
