My first published story appeared in the Brownie magazine half a century ago, now my Pocket novel, Safe Harbour, is to be published by People's Friend.
During the past fifty years I’ve
continued writing, while pursuing a career as a librarian and bringing up my
children. I began writing stories for
women’s magazines, then moved on to longer fiction.
I have twice been short-listed
for the Harry Bowling Award, writing under the name Ruth France, and my story
Harvest Home was included in the Hay short story competition’s anthology
Loss and Deception.
I have completed three novels, as
yet unpublished, though one was recommended for publication by the Romantic
Novelists’ Association New Writers’ Scheme.
I have also grown the best
tomatoes and vegetables in North Wales with compost made from shredded
rejection letters.
Now my Pocket novel, Safe Harbour
is to be published by People’s Friend. Did I already say that?
