I’ve been invited by the Very Talented British writer Terry Tyler to take part in ‘A Very British Blog tour’ – visiting, supporting and championing the work and websites of other British authors.

Each author has been asked exactly the same questions but the answers will obviously all be different!

Here’s the link to Terry’s blog where you can read her interesting answers to the questions

Here are my answers:

Q. Where were you born and where do you live at the moment?

A. I was born in Wolverton – a little Victorian railway town in north Buckinghamshire, until Milton Keynes came and sat on top of it. I started teaching in Leicester in the 1970’s and have lived her ever since.

Q. Have you always lived and worked in Britain or are you based elsewhere at the moment?

A. Yes, apart from a brief period in Canada, in my 20’s, serving burgers at a…

Book Review: The 20’s Girl, the ghost, and all that jazz, by June Kearns

Its always great to receive a supportive review. Its even better to receive a well written and thoughtful one – thanks, Luccia.

I really loved this novel. It draws you in from page one with the setting, writing style, love story, and hint of humour.
It was easy for me to love it, because it has all the elements I enjoy as a reader.

20s girl
Firstly, I’m especially attracted to historical novels, and it is set in the past, specifically in the 1920s, as the title informs us, so we are able to glimpse at these challenging post-war years, during which the human loss of sons, brothers, husbands, and boyfriends, was enhanced by the drear financial situation.

Secondly, there are two spectacular and contrasting settings to experience, the fertile, green and rainy English countryside, with its polite and quaint inhabitants and lifestyle, and an isolated, hot and dry Texan ranch, with rough cowboys!

Thirdly, it is romantic, and I can’t resist a good, historical romance. However, this romance is not your typical instant…

We know you’re a journalist and editor of Romance Matters as well as a writer. How hard is it to find time to write? 

I was given a turquoise Petite Typewriter when I was seven and my fate was sealed. I used to sit at the kitchen table and cut out articles and pictures, then paste them onto pages, making my own magazines. My mother would often sit down with a nice cup of tea and Woman’s…
