I'm honoured to report that my novel The Paper Mill Girl   has been reviewed by none other than the British Association of Paper Historians in their recent newsletter.   Researching my historical novels are my most favourite part of the whole process. I spend up to 6 weeks researching details of the era which make their way into my writing. It helps to give a flavour of authenticity, as much as I can, to my work.  I'm absolutely over the moon that my research has been recognised by such an esteemed group. And just as importantly, that they enjoyed reading it too.

Very happy to see The Paper Mill Girl  previewed in this week's Bookseller magazine.  It comes out in March 2021, just in time for Mother's Day, which will make a lovely present for some mum, or indeed for anyone. The blurb for the book in the Bookseller simply says this, however as I'm sure you can imagine if you know my books by now, there's a hell of a lot more going on. There's class warfare, domestic abuse, one of the most evil women I've ever written and one of the nicest men too. There's the workings of a paper mill in 1919, and I did weeks of intense research on this and the role of women in the mills too. Ultimately it's a story of friendship between women, even across a class divide. And yes, the paper mill girl at the heart of the story, does indeed bring up her sister's baby, but that my friends, is only the beginning of the tale... __ Glenda Young Author of historical novels with Headline    Twitter:  @Flaming_Nora Facebook:  GlendaYoung...
