Susan Lodge writes historical romance set against the backdrop of Nelson’s navy and injects a fair dose of humour into her stories.
If someone asked Susan for her wish list it would start with a Star Trek holodeck.
A great admirer of the works of Patrick O’Brian and Georgette Heyer, her destinations would start with a voyage on Jack Aubrey’s frigate (preferably avoiding times of conflict). Next would be dinner with some of Heyer’s memorable characters; Hugo Darracott and The Marquis of Alvertsoke, would be among them.
Susan has a science degree and always wanted to be an astronaut but settled for a career in the Civil Service. She loves old sailing ships, chocolate, spell checks and tinkering on her piano.

It doesn't matter if I use it or not in the final draft, as long as it gets me writing again. (less)

You can escape. Although ,I still think fact is stranger then fiction a lot of the time.
But there is something rather indulgent about building and nurturing characters. I love it when my characters make me laugh out loud - or want to weep. As though they take control over your fingers on the keyboard for a while.(less)

“Hetty shivered. Goodness, he had no business looking at her like that. Physician my eye! Physicians definitely didn't look like him; they were short, round and adorned with wigs and spectacles.”
Susan Lodge, Only a Hero Will Do

“There are some friendships you cannot slay, no matter how many times you wound each other.”
Susan Lodge, Captain Rockford's Reckoning: A Regency Romance - Love and Betrayal

“Are you some sort of pervert?”
The grey eyes turn from terrified to indignant. “Do you mind keeping your voice down, I have a perfectly innocent explanation.” He unravels himself and straightens up, towering over us like some freshly escaped genie.”
Susan Lodge, The Man in the Blue Flowered Shorts
