I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve just agreed a 2-book deal with Hodder & Stoughton. My new novel will appear in 2015 and another book will follow. The new book is about an C18th orphan girl who is educated through a benefactor. She becomes a scientist – or in the parlance of the time, a Natural Philosopher. She travels abroad and makes a remarkable discovery…
I’m very excited about continuing to work with the brilliant team at Hodder, especially my wonderful editor, Suzie Dooré. I’m also extremely grateful to my marvellous agent, Jane Conway-Gordon, for negotiating the waters of the publishing world for me and all her support.
Very happy days!
