I'm a writer by vocation and avocation. Writing and editing is how I've earned my living my entire adult life—I've worked for consumer and trade magazines in the States and the UK, and I'm currently a freelancer working with ecommerce companies, publishing companies, and pretty much any other company that needs wordsmithing.

But writing is also what makes me happy and keeps me (more or less) sane. After working with an agent but failing to find a publisher for my first three novels, I published my novel Beyond Billicombe in September 2012 and am editing another novel. ...more

If you enjoy lyrical descriptions of flora, appreciate philosophical interludes, and don't mind slow, considered pacing, you'll find "A Great Act of Love" a fulfilling read. I found it a slog at times, and though it's apparently inspired by author He ...more

Sherry Chiger rated a book really liked it In Bloom by Liz Allan (Goodreads Author)	Error rating book. Refresh and try again. Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
First-person plural narrative can come across as gimmicky, but "In Bloom" uses it effectively—so much so that when the narrative voice changes near the end, it packs quite a punch. Liz Allan depicts a dead-end Australian town in the 1990s perfectly a ...more

"Cry Havoc" is quirky, for sure, but I enjoyed it thoroughly. Ida's arrival at the bottom-of-the-barrel boarding school—the mystery of the family scandal she's trying to escape, her relationship with reluctant roommate Louise—seems to be the predomin ...more

Having read two of the three previous books in the King's Fool series, I'm happy to say this fourth installment, "Devil's Gambit," is just as entertaining as the others. In fact, it's my favorite yet, partly because it features Anne of Cleves, to my ...more

"Enjoyable" isn't quite the right word to describe the experience of reading "Berlin Shuffle," but this tale of down-and-outers in Weimar Berlin is certainly immersive, engrossing, and engaging. Boschwitz's ability to hop from one character's mindset ...more

Let's get what I disliked about "Superhero" out of the way. The most galling is the insufferable main character, Peter. He wasn't a love-to-hate character; I suspect we're actually supposed to have some respect and admiration toward him. Certainly th ...more
