Michelle Birkby has always loved crime stories, and read her first Sherlock Holmes book when she was thirteen. She was given a beautiful collection of all the short stories and has been hooked with the wonderful, gas-lit, atmospheric world of crime and adventure ever since.

What am I up to at the moment?

Hi

So, what am I doing right now? Well, right now I’m considering watching Fleabag episode 3, but if you mean writing wise....

Well, I’m working on a Blitz novel - it’s a thrilling, and yet very dark time, one that saw a lot of change. It’s an exciting time to write in.

I’ve got a third Mrs Hudson and Mary Watson novel pretty much done.

Thinking about writing for TV with a friend.
