The Anchoress, Fiona Brice

At the beginning of her own story, The Anchoress was in motion. Born in Wales, her parents took her to live in Australia at the tender age of 10 weeks old?—?the very moment she was old enough to fly. By the age of four she was back in Buckinghamshire, in a house that rang to the sounds of The Carpenters, The Beatles and Nilsson.

She learned the language of songcraft along with speech. She became obsessed with classical ballet, and spent her teenage years en pointe. Dancing was her life until it wasn’t. She was in motion until she stopped.
