Hello dear readers, I'm so pleased to meet you here and introduce you to my writing life. My first job after university was at British Vogue - I was runner-up in their annual talent competition and lucky enough to be offered a job in the editorial side - it was such a fantastic start to grown-up life and work and I had a ball! Then real life kicked in and as a young mother at home with toddlers I began my career as a biographer. To my amazement my books were well-reviewed and I had one Sunday Times and New York Times bestseller - my examination of the relationship between Elizabeth l and Mary Queen of Scots. Only recently have I discovered the joy of writing historical fiction, specifically set in the Regency in the time of the Napoleonic Wars. My first novel, 'The Marriage Season', was published 26th January 2023, the second, 'An Unsuitable Heiress', on 22nd May 2023 and my third 'A Scandalous Match' is published 17th January 2024. My love of this period dates back to my first biography, of Mary Shelley, author of Frankenstein, when I met the poets, Shelley and Byron and the young romantics navigating their way in a dynamic and fast changing world. It delights me that the characters and stories in 'The Marriage Season', and the subsequent novels, all standalone, exist in their historic context with language and mores they would have understood at the time. My biographies are: 'Moon in Eclipse: A Life of Mary Shelley'; 'A Very Close Conspiracy: Vanessa Bell and Virginia Woolf'; 'Antonia White: A Life'. 'Elizabeth and Mary: Cousins, Rivals, Queens' spent seven weeks in the top ten of the Sunday Times bestseller list. This was followed by 'Read my Heart: Dorothy Osborne and Sir William Temple, a Love Story in the Age of Revolution' and then 'Daphne du Maurier and her Sisters'. I am honoured to be an elected Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, and live in Berkshire with my husband, the Classicist, Nicholas Ostler, and an elderly rescue whippet. I am amazed and grateful if you've read this far and hope you enjoy any one of my books, all written from the heart. The most thanks go to my wonderful readers who have bought my books, some of you taking the time to leave such thoughtful and kind reviews - sometimes more insightful and enthusiastic than I could have written myself! You make all this possible. Jane
