Happy 127th birthday to the almost-forgotten, but wonderfully talented, mid-twentieth century bestselling author Dorothy Whipple. She's a favourite of mine (in fact I spent a whole summer 'with' Whipple the other year - more here, if you're interested: http://bit.ly/2MqEVv4), and I wish I could pass on birthday wishes in person 🙂 x

Just thought I'd share details of this VE Day event with you. I was sent these details by Canadian author Elinor Florence, who'll be signing her copies of her bestselling book, Bird's Eye View, on the day. Unfortunately I'm busy that weekend, but thought some of you might be interested?

Practising what I preach - using a photo to inspire today's wartime scene (huge thanks to @imperialwarmuseums for use of their online photo archive collection)🙂x

The New York Times has some advice on how to find time to read more, suggesting a minimum of 20 minutes a day (apparently some people like to read at the gym...🤨).
So I was wondering, how long/often do you find the time to read?

I've been going through my research trip photos and thought I would share this one - visiting the Jacques-Henri Bernadin de Saint-Pierre statue. Saint-Pierre's eighteenth century French classic, Paul et Virginie, is one of the inspirations for my current work-in-progress 🙂x

Today would have been the 127th birthday of the vastly underrated Notts novelist Dorothy Whipple. We teamed up with @ClareHarveyauth 18 months ago to reappraise one of the sharpest local talents:

Time to practice what I 'preach' (well, workshop). Using a photo from the wonderful @I_W_M collection to inspire today's scenes.

Good to hear the wonderful @BromleyHouseLib has re-opened!
Such an evocative place - I set a scene there in #TheNightRaid
Worth a visit if you're in #Nottingham 🙂
