2023 opens with the great news that two of my most important books will be republished in beautiful new editions before the year is out!

Details of launch events in celebration of my new novel The Haunted Hills.

The very attractive glossy magazine Derbyshire Life celebrates my two new books this year, The Haunted Hills and Rose Doran Dreams, in a three-page spread.

I was recently asked to recommend five children’s books about asylum seekers and refugees for a popular book review site. Learn more here.

Rose Doran Dreams is now featured in an article in Writers Review, an online review blog by novelists Celia Rees, Linda Newbery and Adèle Geras.

I’m delighted to have been presented with the Sheffield Star Inspirational Women of Sheffield Award 2022, in the Marti Caine Entertainment category.

I’m delighted to announce that my ebook Rose Doran Dreams was published on 31 March 2022, and is therefore OUT NOW.

On Thursday, 31 March 2022 I will be taking part in a Zoom event celebrating the re-publication of Jill Paton Walsh’s children’s novel, A Parcel of Patterns.

I’m pleased to be one of the judges for the War Through Children’s Eyes art and writing competition for children.

My sense of place is explored in the latest issue of the beautifully produced Hope Valley Journal, ‘a celebration of people and places’.
