Jonah's Story
Writing has come late to me. Despite having read thousands of books, it didn't occur to me to try and write one until 2022. Two extremely vivid dreams on successive nights stayed in my mind, and seemed to demand to be joined up into a story. Before I knew it, I'd written seven chapters of what was to become The Bear of Pichesham. That was followed by The Soul Stone two years later. In 2026 I released Turold & Afelgiva and Turold's Conquest, the first two volumes in a series of novels about Turold the Storyteller, set around the events of the Norman Invasion of England in 1066 and inspired by the Bayeux Tapestry.
By nature, I'm what they call a 'pantser'. I like to write intuitively without knowing what is going to happen next. The trouble is, fitting a structure back onto intuitive writing is difficult and slow! I'm so grateful to all those who have helped me learn the craft of plotting.
Four books in, I'm working on Volume III of Turold the Storyteller. Turold's and the Bayeux Settlement is due for release in September 2027
