Life

She tells how her publisher father brought home blank books, and she would write and illustrate her own stories in these. She began to study medicine, but moved instead to the Art School in Leicester to study graphic design and illustration, using these skills to begin illustrating books.
Her first novel was the first in her Septimus Heap series: Magyk.{{Cite web |title=Angie Sage |url=https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/157663.Angie_Sage |website=Goodreads |accessdate=20 November 2019}}
