Meet Local Shropshire Author Ally Pinkwood

Author | 27 November 2025

Bringing Magic, Kindness and Enchanted Forests to Life

Shropshire is home to many creative souls, and one of them is local author Ally Pinkwood, the imagination behind the beautiful children’s series Fayville — a magical world filled with whispering trees, glowing forests, and gentle lessons of kindness and courage.

Ally currently has two published books, Welcome to Fayville – Enchanted Beginnings and Fayville Forest Friends – Adventures Amongst Whispering Trees, Wandering Paths & Crystal Circles, both available on Amazon.

Her books are perfect for children aged 7–9, but they also resonate deeply with older readers and adults who believe in magic, wonder, and the power of kindness. Each chapter carries a quiet lesson, inviting readers to slow down, breathe, and notice the light in the world around them.

Ally is now writing Book 3, with two more stories already forming, expanding the Fayville universe into an enchanting trilogy — and beyond.

Warm, imaginative, and deeply heart-led, Ally’s work offers a gentle escape into a world filled with glowing pathways, magical friends, and timeless wisdom.

If you love supporting local creators, beautifully illustrated books, and stories that soothe the soul, keep an eye on Ally’s journey — Fayville is growing, and the magic is only just beginning. Available to purchase
