These days I live a much quieter life with my husband in a pretty Georgian vicarage deep in the Nottinghamshire countryside, and I am writing full time. I’m supported in that endeavour not only by the tolerant Mr Winter (bless him!), but also by the Deputy Editor, aka Molly the cockerpoo, who’s assisted by the lovely Mavis, a Yorkie-Bichon cross with a bark several sizes larger than she is, but no opinion whatsoever on the placement of semi-colons.I have been a lover of Jane Austen’s works for most of my life. I know it is appalling cheek to use even a fraction of Jane’s ‘little bit of ivory’, but I hope she will forgive me. My only excuse is that of all literary heroines, Lizzy Bennet is the one I wanted to be. Writing Pride and Prejudice variations is the closest I shall ever come.показать меньше
