Jane Costello is a highly acclaimed English author, best known for her fiction works. She began her career as a newspaper journalist, working at reputable institutions such as the Liverpool Echo as a graduate trainee and the Daily Mail. Costello eventually became the Editor of the Liverpool Daily Post, a position she held for over four years until 2007.
Costello's writing career took off while she was on maternity leave, when she wrote her first book, "Bridesmaids," under the pseudonym Jane Costello. Her subsequent novels were all best-sellers in the UK, but after a decade of writing romantic comedies, she came up with the idea for "You Me Everything" and decided to write it under the name Catherine Isaac. This change in nom de plume reflected her desire to explore a different genre, that of bittersweet love stories.
Under the name Catherine Isaac, Costello has published five books, including "You Me Everything" and "Messy, Wonderful Us." The former has been published in 24 languages and is being developed into a movie by Lionsgate. The latter is set for UK publication in November 2019. Costello is a two-time winner of the Romantic Novelists' Award and has had her novels translated into 26 languages. She has also been selected by the Richard and Judy Book Club.
Costello was born in Liverpool, England, and started her writing career as a trainee reporter at the Liverpool Echo. She has been writing for over a decade, and her works have been widely successful, earning her a loyal following of readers. She still resides in Liverpool with her husband and three sons, and in her spare time, she enjoys running, walking in the Lake District, and baking cakes. Costello loves hearing from her readers, and she encourages them to get in touch with her through her social media channels.
