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

Ducks on the rhyne

A rhyne (pronounced ‘reen’) in Somerset is a ditch, or water course which has been dug as a drainage channel, and you find them all across the south-west of England and south Wales. I’d never come across the word until we moved to the west country in the 1960’s,even though we came from a similar […]
