About Hugh Fraser
Hugh Fraser is Storynory’s founder. He writes the original stories and adapts many of the myths and legends.
He studied Classics at Oxford University, before working as a journalist. He spent 1990 to 1993 based in Moscow working for a number of publications including the FT, The Independent and Variety.
In 1990 he joined the BBC where he worked for 12 years on business programmes and various Russian projects.
Hugh set up a company called Blog Relations in 1995 with his old friend, Matthew Lynn. It was a little ahead of its time. Storynory began as a project of Blog Relations when they decided they wanted their own publishing project. Hugh became completely hooked on Storynory and has continued with it ever since.

Dear Hugh,
I apologise for causing you a problem. This is my fault. I will try not to do it again.
Please take down my two “love comment” and you will be fine.
By the way, may I say “Thank You” to Prince Bertie the Frog for his kindness.Little Cat — September 8, 2010

Dear Little Cat
I’d be glad to take down any comments you ask for, but I can’t find the ones you mention. I saw some on the Mermaid and the Merman but under a different name – perhaps your other name? Or can you point me to the comments you would like me to take down – give me the stories and I should be able to find them.

I don’t care if you are Hugh or Bertie I just care that you never never never never never stop writing the origional stories especially the Katie ones, and that storynory is there, and that Natasha always is on storynory, and she never gets tired of telling stories. I shall die if she isn’t there any more! I love the way you tell stories, Natasha, and though I’m from India, I can tell stories just like you if I want to!!!
Maybe because I speak English all the time, and my family loves different kinds of accents. I am a Cristian by the way.Nisha — June 15, 2014

Dear Brif,
Thank you for your sweet comment! It is still possible to imagine Bertie being a real frog; especially whilst listening to the stories. That’s the great thing about imagination.. brings stories and characters to life. Stay tuned; Bertie’s about to bring out a new story!Jana Elizabeth — December 7, 2014
