I love the research (and it’s just as well!)
It’s great that the new book is out there. It’s been a long time coming! Part of it takes place in World War Two so it’s lucky that I’ve always loved the research, sometimes to the extent that it eclipses time to write. I’d always been aware of GIs being billeted in Dorset and Devon in the lead up to […]
On a Falling Tide – review
At long last the weather is improving. It’s warm and humid in Devon – but no rain or hail for the first time in what seems like weeks. Actually, it is weeks! If you’re looking for a book to get your teeth into this Bank Holiday weekend, why not read Cathie Dunn’s wonderful review of […]
Snow at the Seaside
Hope you had a good Easter. How did you cope with the weird weather? Even in Devon we had hail storms. A friend came round to sit in the garden for a much-delayed catch-up and natter. Even though we wore coats and had blankets draped over our knees, the chill defeated us! Think I need […]
Behind the Book
On a Falling Tide was in its early stages when I heard there might be a film made about Mary Anning. I was excited for a couple of reasons. I knew what I was writing had promise and it was good to know others found fossils interesting! Plus, the film would be made in my favourite town of […]
Mary Anning Inspires!
The writer Rosie Howard recently reviewed On a Falling Tide by saying: ‘This is a story written with such heart and generosity – a tale of grief, romance and mystery – this book has it all, along with the beautifully evoked setting of Lyme Regis and the Jurassic Coast. I really get the impression it […]

On a Falling Tide
As you can probably tell it’s been nose to the key-board recently. As well as doing edits for the new release, I’m also on the second draft of a new Berecombe book. The publication of On a Falling Tide took me slightly by surprise. After three years of trying to place it, it came out […]
Not entirely Persuaded
The chance to see a stage adaptation of Persuasion in the very town where a crucial scene is set and where Jane Austen herself stayed, had me booking tickets straightaway. Once again, it was time to visit the Marine Theatre in Lyme Regis, or as it’s known, ‘the little theatre by the sea.’ Persuasion […]
2017: it’s been quite a year!
It’s been quite a year! Here are some of the highlights. Moving house We actually managed to sell the house in Herefordshire, despite a few last minute hiccoughs and moved into a cottage while waiting for the next house to be ready. A lack of broadband held up the second part of the move […]
Antigone – Actors of Dionysus
This week’s trip to the little theatre by the sea was for Antigone. Toured by the Brighton-based Actors of Dionysus, it was created by playwright Christopher Adams. Actors of Dionysus aim to “create fresh, bold and urgent interpretations of Classical Greek work.” And they certainly succeeded on Saturday night in Lyme Regis. I know the […]
