edit data

As a child, Jill read so obsessively she got kicked out of the school library. But her passion for words continued. She graduated in English Literature and Theatre Studies from the University of Wales and set up a theatre company. Since then, as an actor, director, teacher, writer and journalist, she’s worked in fifteen countries. She learnt something from each one.

She works as a language trainer all over Europe, collaborates with Nuance Words and Triskele Books, and contributes regularly to Words with JAM magazine. But most of the time, she writes. And reads.

Behind Closed Doors is the first Beatrice Stubbs novel, a Euro ...more

A Makeover!

Blog followers, this is a sneak preview just for you. Since I first published in 2013, technology has hurtled ahead like a pug after a pussycat, dragging me stumbling in its wake. Unlike the real pug/puss scenario, where the former gives up or the latter stands its ground, I’ve realised I can’t keep up […]

Quotes by J.J. Marsh (?)

“Reading is a strange experience, he thought. You dive into the world of another, adjust to their terms, begin to feel at home and then it’s over. You’re alone with a bundle of emotions and no means of return. Rather like a failed relationship. Or being kidnapped by aliens.”
― J.J. Marsh, The Beatrice Stubbs Boxset Two

“Wispy clouds the colour of chicks puffed above their heads chased by shimmering shoals of mackerel, and the riotous morning calls of seabirds heralded the day.”
― J.J. Marsh, Pearl Moon

“Allegiance and honour are often pledged with no merit. To ally oneself with a cause, there must be a belief in its mission. Even then every member should question that organisation’s methods, regularly and rigorously. Otherwise people label themselves as loyal to the gang, the party, the religion or the movement with blind devotion, ignoring the fact it grows closer and closer to those it opposes. Identity is easy. Thinking is hard.”
― J.J. Marsh, Gold Dragon
