Debbie Morrison
Once upon a time, I was a perfectly respectable London professional — a chartered accountant with a law degree, a Blackberry (remember those?), and too many sensible shoes. Then common sense prevailed, romance called, and I swapped London’s Zone One for Devon’s zero signal. I still wonder if leaving the City was brave or simply plot research taken to a reckless extreme.

Now my “head office” is a polytunnel: no Wi-Fi, but plenty of fresh air and flourishing tomatoes. The plants photosynthesise while I draft havoc; technically off-grid, creatively on fire.
Meanwhile, the dogs run the editorial obstruction department. They possess zero publishing experience yet veto scenes with a single raised paw — their union insists on edible compensation on -

Greetings!
Buy books on Amazon
My name is Amelia Short and I love writing books set in is sunny, far away places.
I am lucky enough to live by the seaside in beautiful Devon, England with my husband, where I like to take inspiration from the rolling waves and fresh sea air. It’s the perfect place for long walks where I can think through my plot lines or listen to podcasts and audiobooks.
I love to travel and explore as often as my work and finances will allow. I like nothing more than to delve into a good holiday read (even before the flight has taken off!) and hope my book will give my readers the same enjoyment.
I am currently enjoying writing my Romantic Comedy series, A Place in Greece.
Happy reading!! -

Andy Hughson
Born and raised in and around the grey skies of Manchester, England, I am now fortunate to reside in the sunnier climes of inland Andalucía, Spain, and I would describe myself as equal parts creative (as a writer, musician and artist) and practical.
Buy books on Amazon
From an early age I fell in love with reading and the power of the written word to transport the reader to another land and time. In my adult life, my reading tastes have been mainly thrillers and police procedural novels, with the occasional sojourn into horror, comedy and autobiographies.
I really enjoy the writing process, and like most writers, I don’t write to be famous or earn a million – although that would be very nice, of course, even if the Spanish state would end up keeping more than ha -
