Cover pictures, [past and present]

First published by Robert Hale, these hardback editions all had covers
designed by David Young, a Cornwall based artist,whose work
encompasses a wide variety of subjects. 
A distinctive feature is his use of bright and cheerful colours. 
As his range and his fame increases, maybe the covers will be of more value
than the stories inside. They certainly gave the books a certain cachet.
Thank you again, David. 



       
            

Later, two novels were published in paperback by Lume Books

together with two new stories.



Recently Joffe Books reissued my first two stories [which are linked] 

as ebooks, with updated covers.

  

A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL THESE PUBLISHERS FOR 

HAVING FAITH IN MY REGENCY TALES.

A big thrill

Today I'm feeling very pleased because of a trip to my local Waterstone's bookshop. Lo and behold my own stories were there - not just one but several copies of my books on the shelf. That has really made my day.


I write adventure romance tales set in Regency times. They are published by Robert Hale and Hale hardbacks are not often seen on the shelves in bookshops. You can find them in libraries or order them from Robert Hale, Amazon or The Book Depository.
So at the moment, I'm walking on air. The photo is to reassure myself I didn't dream it.
