Penny Swift

    Penny Swift is a versatile author and journalist whose extensive body of work spans over 40 non-fiction books and countless articles, press releases, and web content. Her topics are as vast and varied as the cultural divergence of her native South Africa, drawing inspiration from its unique landscape. While many of her books offer practical guidance for home improvement, DIY, and landscaping, she has also explored themes of horses and children's literature. Swift excels in research and editing, and often collaborates with her husband, Janek Szymanowski, who illustrates her works, while also serving as a ghostwriter for clients globally.
