New publications by Orion coming soon

Starting next May Orion will be reissuing my first two bestsellers, The Flowers of the Field and A Flower That’s Free.

Even better, Orion are going to follow that with publication of my most recent novel – and the third in the series – The Wildflower Garden,  which brings the characters, both familiar and new, right up to the end of the twentieth century. I’m so pleased that the trilogy will be complete, and together.

I’m working on a new novel, too, something quite different, but superstition prevents me saying too much about that here and now.

Behind the mic

It’s been a busy year with the launch of The Pulsatillas and adventures in stand-up. I’ve also chaired (for the third time) a Girls’ Night In fiction panel at the Chorleywood Litfest, and spoken to several U3A meetings and the ESU regional conference.
