George R. Her Flat Earth Series was inspired by a game Tanith Lee played with her mother; some of her other works are influenced by fairy tales her mother told her.

She was the first woman to win the British Fantasy Award best novel award (also known as the August Derleth Award) for her book Death's Master (1980). She also wrote two episodes of BBC science fiction series Blake's 7.
