Jan Baynham.

Jan tells me about writing Her Mother’s Secret along with her path to publication.

Juliette Lawson.

As a beta reader for Juliette Lawson’s debut, A Borrowed Past, I was delighted to be able to talk to her about her inspiration for this historical novel.

I was amazed to discover that Juliette didn’t start creative writing until the age of 52 after putting together a parish history.
