ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Award-winning author Jan Jones was born and brought up in North London, but now lives near Newmarket, equidistant from Cambridge, Bury St Edmunds and Ely. With all this history on her doorstep, it is no wonder that the past plays a large part in her writing.
She fell in love with the Regency genre roughly fifteen seconds after opening her first Georgette Heyer novel. Writing Regencies herself is like slipping on the most comfortable frock in the world and settling down for tea and cake with an old friend.
Jan is an active member of the Romantic Novelists’ Association, who are without doubt the loveliest band of professional writers anywhere on the planet. Their unfailing support and friendship is unrivalled, their parties are legendary and the annual conference is completely unmissable. Website at http://www.rna-uk.org/
Jan won the Elizabeth Goudge Trophy in 2002, the RNA Joan Hessayon debut novel award in 2005, and has been shortlisted three times for the Love Story of the Year / RoNA Rose. She writes books, novellas, serials, poetry and short stories for women’s magazines. She can be found at www.jan-jones.co.uk, http://janjones.blogspot.co.uk/ and is at https://www.facebook.com/jan.jones.7545 for Facebook and on twitter as @janjonesauthor
Little known fact: A former software engineer, Jan co-designed and wrote the Sinclair QL computer language SUPERBasic. Her textbook ‘QL SUPERBasic - the Definitive Handbook’ occasionally turns up in second-hand sales, commanding ridiculous sums of money and causing her to wish quite fervently that she’d kept her original author copies. Due to demand, Jan recently retyped, reformatted and re-released a Kindle edition of ‘QL SUPERBasic - the Definitive Handbook’ a mere thirty years after she first wrote the original. To her astonishment, and with gratitude to all those in the QL community, it is still selling steadily.
