Book launch, Blog tour, Museum shops, Features & Reviews - my writing week

This week I've been continuing to research for saga number 8 set in 1919.

It was another crazy, busy week with another paperback launch! Yes, two paperback launches in a matter of weeks, my head is spinning. This week was the turn of the launch for my debut cosy crime Murder at the Seaview Hotel.

There was a full page spread in The Scarborough News helping promote the book launch for my debut cosy crime Murder at the Seaview Hotel.

Murder at the Seaview Hotel was featured on BBC Radio York - listen to my interview here.

And featured in The York Press - read the feature here.

Murder at the Seaview Hotel was also given a wonderful review in this week's The People's Friend magazine. You can enter to win a copy of the book, but you need to buy the magazine that's in the shops until Tuesday next week.

Meanwhile my new saga The Miner's Lass was on a "blog tour" this week, being reviewed by book bloggers. Want to know what they made of the book? All their reviews are here.

Absolutely over the moon that The Miner's Lass is going to be on sale in the shop at Durham Mining Museum in Spennymoor and in the shop at the National Coal Mining Museum, Wakefield. Thank you to both museums for their support.

I wrote a feature on researching historical fiction during lockdown last year and it's been published in The Romantic Novelists' Association newsletter, Romance Matters. I was very happy to have this published.

The North East book fairies left a secret copy of my novel Belle of the Back Streets at Saint Paul's church in Ryhope this week. How lovely! Find out more here.

My November author newsletter with competitions and special offers is now online here.

I crafted another episode of my weekly soap opera Riverside for The People's Friend magazine. I've been writing Riverside weekly since 2016 and you can find out all about it here.
