A new Sixpenny Cross tale

When I finish an Old Fools book, I always feel elated, but exhausted. That’s when I turn to my village and friends at Sixpenny Cross and lose myself in weaving a story that I hope keeps readers guessing. C is for the Captain has been bubbling in my head (and Joe’s) for a long time, […]

Stages of a book cover

When I asked my cover artist, Nick Saltmer, to design a cover for C is for the Captain, book 3 of the Sixpenny Cross series, all I said was, I’d like a typical English village pub, please. Within days he had come back with the initial sketch.  Not only had he sketched an English pub […]

Lola the Spoodle and her new treasure

Just in case you were wondering how Lola is – here’s an update. Of course I don’t mean Lola Ufarte, the young lady who frequently shocks El Hoyo. No, I’m talking about Lola, our gorgeous but completely insane cocker spaniel/poodle mix.  She’ll be three years old in August, unbelievable! Lola only has one mission in […]

My magnetic granddaughter

My littlest granddaughter, Winter, is walking now, and very mobile. She still pops everything in her mouth which is always a worry. After putting the children to bed, my daughter came across a fridge magnet, minus the magnet… She searched in vain for it. Had Winter swallowed it? My daughter phoned the hospital. “I think […]

The Old Fools are back!

Last year, when Joe was twice rushed into Intensive Care and put on a life-support machine, everything changed.   The shock was profound and his recovery has been slow and arduous. Thank goodness, Joe is not one to give up, and he is now almost as strong as when the viruses attacked. Thank you so […]
