Juggling Non-Fiction & Fiction Projects
Now that The Beaulieu Vanishing, my second historical novel featuring Francis Cranley, is being readied for publication, I have had time to begin work on a new non-fiction title for Pen & Sword Books. Called Famous Brand Names & Their Origins, the book will explore how some of today’s best known brands started out. Expect a trip down memory lane combined with interesting, little known facts about our favourite household items.
While I'm enjoying dipping a toe back into non-fiction after a break of several years, I have no intention of abandoning the novels. In fact, I'm a third of the way through a YA story set in 17th century and present day Cornwall, and am already thinking about the next Francis Cranley. So, busy times all round!
Famous Brand Names & Their Origins is due for publication in November 2016. The Beaulieu Vanishing will be published in early summer 2015.
