Writing stories of the soul—across time, memory, and meaning.

Claire Southwood is a debut author, born and educated in Switzerland, who left corporate life in 2016 to begin a new chapter in the United Kingdom, where she now lives with her husband and their beloved four-legged friend.

Deeply inspired by nature, art, philosophical and spiritual explorations, Claire transforms soul-inspired knowledge into fictionalised, real-life stories. Her work reflects a lifelong fascination with identity, memory, and the unseen forces that shape human experience.

Through her writing, Claire invites readers to reflect on their own pasts and consider how unresolved histories—personal or collective—continue to influence the present. Her storytelling is thoughtful, evocative, and rooted in the enduring mysteries of life itself.

Author Note

“I’m currently working on my next soul-transforming manuscript and staying true to my theme of past-present connections, the story will transport the reader to the land and lore of Native Americans. This time, however, the past will present itself in a slightly different manner and only emerge once the conditions of the memory have been met… Stay tuned, C.”
