Set in 1382 a year after the Wat Tyler peasants’ revolt, this novel is fixed in the area where I live and it is intriguing to see its ruins and modern settlements through different eyes. Hildegard took the veil seven years before, after the death in F ...more |

Take an inter-schools competition, a sink-estate, a group of eleven year olds from dysfunctional families… and a murder. This is no genteel Famous Five novel, neither is it a book aimed at children. Set in the early 1990s on the cusp of internet use, ...more |

After hassles with multiple publishers and an agent I went indie when the ebook market opened, but its been a big learning curve. There again, what isn't?

Oh please, tell me about it! Do these people have no imagination? At least you *look* as if you could carry off yours, unlike me - LOL!
Have a good weekend.
