I recently took part in Deborah Klee’s Castaway Books author podcast.

You can only have five books & one luxury item - and I didn’t go for a comfy bed, chocolate, OR a helicopter!

An exciting task today!

I dropped off an advance copy of 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐈𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐌𝐢𝐝𝐰𝐢𝐟𝐞 to the lovely team at WHSmith in Belfast City Airport. We’re hoping to arrange a book signing for September when the book is officially launched.

My books have arrived!

#unboxing

My research showed that many pre-war midwives believed that some doctors only turned up for the fee.

Had to be said!
#RespectRomFic

“We read romance because it’s well-written, engaging, and—most importantly—uplifting. And in today’s world we all need a wee glow now and again.”

I've written for Elysium Lifestyle Magazine about the sneering that romance books often get, and outlined responses to some of the key criticisms we hear. Have I missed any?

Day 29 - #HistFicMay
I don’t have a specific time for writing but for the first draft of my sixth novel, The Stolen Sister, I found that getting up and starting writing on the computer by 7am each morning kept me immersed in the story.

Day 31 #HistFicMay

My next histfic book is a follow up to Peggy’s story, featuring her friend Kathleen who is a Belfast handywoman (uncertified midwife).

But it’s 1941 and the Belfast Blitz is about to happen…

Currently editing this one and am really pleased with it!
