How my Tuppenny Bridge series came to be, and what went on before I started it, while I was writing it, and after I’d finished it…

I’m excited to say that it’s another publication day! This time I’m taking you to Kelsea Sands on the East Yorkshire coast. Well, they say home is where the heart is…

Before Tuppenny Bridge there was The Other Half. A look behind the scenes at writing my family drama about the Kingstons and the Fletchers.

How three standalone stories, linked only by a theme, became a series of heartwarming, festive tales.

How one little story idea became a pocket novel, a large print novel, and the first in a series of six books!

A little bit about why I wrote my Moorland Heroes series, the books that inspired it, and what I changed and adapted for the modern day audience.

Would you be surprised to know that it all began with Jane Eyre? My first book that is! I owe this exceptional novel by Charlotte Bronte a great deal.

Some of the magical locations that inspired, or are referenced in, my Witches of Castle Clair books.

Venturing into the East Yorkshire countryside, and a stately home that ticks all the boxes to become the star of my Kearton Bay series.
