About


Georgina Key is an award winning writer and artist who lives in Houston, Texas with her husband and two sons. She graduated with an MA in English Literature and has taught writing for many years: formally at the college level, through Writers in the Schools and Grackle and Grackle, and independently as a private tutor. She and her husband founded the children's literary zine, Silver Rocket and co-authored the chapbook, Mean Ugly Cat
After moving to the states from England, Georgina and her family would vacation in Galveston, Texas each summer. Her dream of owning her own little house by the sea came true years later. The nearby community of Bolivar Peninsula was so different from where she was raised, but she quickly fell in love with the authentic beauty of the landscape and its inhabitants. Shiny Bits in Between is her love letter to Bolivar Peninsula.

Shiny Bits Behind the Scenes Part 2--Little Yellow House

Did you know Dorie's house in Shiny Bits was based on my own little yellow house by the sea? Here it is...a nd as a bonus/extra: that amazing kitchen window I mentioned (along with a special musical accompaniment by Joe, my hubby!)  

Bolivar Peninsula Here I Come!

I made a recent trip to my beloved Bolivar to drop off some Shiny Bits paperbacks at a few local retailers. I took photos and video footage of my trip to share with my readers.  August 30th at 7 pm CST, watch my author spot at the  Literary Lockdown  Book Fair, hosted by Creative Central on Facebook for more behind-the-scenes of Shiny Bits In Between!  See you then! h 

Shiny Bits Collage

All these photos were taken on Bolivar Peninsula, Texas and reflect places and events in my novel. Each one of these images is a moment in my own life that ended up informing my writing of shiny bits in between --my homage to this extraordinary place.
