I was very pleased to take part in the Local Author Showcase at Tunbridge-Wells Lit Fest back in May, and met many other authors presenting a variety of genres including fiction, poetry and history. I was also delighted to meet American born historical romance novelist Lotte R James, who was kind enough to present me with a signed copy of her latest novel A Liaison With Her Leading Lady (Mills & Boon)

A few weeks later, I was delighted to host Lotte during a visit to Dover Castle, and to present an advance copy of Babanango, A Rougher Task in reciprocation! I’m proud to count Lotte as a friend as well as a professional colleague and fellow literary community neighbour!
