Thank you for visiting my website. I am a saga writer, living in beautiful North Wales. Moving here was the fulfilment of a lifelong dream, but my writing is inspired by my Mancunian roots.

 

I am represented by Laura Longrigg at MBA. My books are published by Allison & Busby (hardback, ebook and paperback), Magna Large Print and Isis Soundings (audiobooks). Writing as Polly Heron, I am published by Corvus (paperback and ebook), Isis Soundings and WF Howes Large Print.

My very latest news is to do with The Surplus Girls, so you'll need to drop by my Polly Heron website to see it. (But do come back here afterwards!)

 

My Blog:


My latest blog is about the wonderful response to the special promotion on The Deserter's Daughter.

 

 

I am working on ...

 

I have spent all last week working on the edits for the second book in the Surplus Girls series. Now that all the changes have been made, I'm going to have a read-though just as a final check.

Living by the sea:

 

I love living in Llandudno. We've been here for nearly seven years now, but that "Wow! We really live here," feeling never goes away.
