Louise Cooper (29 May 1952 – 21 October 2009)[1] was a British fantasy writer who lived in Cornwall with her husband, Cas Sandall.
She became a prolific writer of fantasy, renowned for her bestselling Time Master trilogy.
Cooper gained a great deal of writing inspiration from the coast and scenery, and her other interests included music, folklore, cooking, gardening and "messing about on the beach".
She was treasurer of her local Lifeboat station; she and her husband both sang with the shanty group Falmouth Shout.
[citation needed] Cooper died aged 57 of a brain haemorrhage on 21 October 2009.
