I'm a mum, granny, published writer and artist/illustrator who loves pottering round my cottage and garden. I love spending time with my family, reading, painting and writing.
Steventon Rectory where Jane Austen was born. I used as much source material where possible, as the original building was sadly demolished.

Installing a new display at the Weston Library takes time and precision.
Dancing with Jane Austen is now open, featuring rare loans from Jane Austen’s House, including a manuscript music book copied in Jane Austen’s own hand.

Novels to re-read every decade or so, because you see something new and more insightful in them each time as you get older. The Austen canon certainly. Middlemarch. Anna Karenina. War and Peace. Crime and Punishment. Bleak House. Other suggestions?
How true. Currently re reading the Jane Austen canon for first time since my teens. Utterly different experience. Richer, funnier, even more insightful
