Lois

I am a writer living in the west of England; I have written fourrteen novels, my latest being 'Winterdyke' This is the latest of the seven Radwinter genealogical mysteries series, all available on Amazon - the eighth in the series due to appear in early summer. I have written seven other novels, a guide to writing, three stories for reluctant readers and two anthologies with other writers. All are available as eBooks and paperbacks. I hope my blog will engage you with my other interests, music, family history travel, and food... Most of all I hope you engage with my writing and my thoughts on the process... at least, on my process!! You can also find me on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram

A hundred years ago today… sacrifice

While in St Andrews Church Burnham-on-Sea, we came across this plaque; it’s not very clear, partly because it was in a difficult place for me to photograph, but also because it was darkened by age. ‘To the memory of Cecil William Holt, midshipman, who drowned in action at sea 22nd September 1914, aged 15.
