Hello, and welcome to my website ~ here you will get a view on my books and life as a published author. It’s been a long journey to getting here ~ finally I am now writing full time and hope you enjoy what you find here. If you want to get in touch, follow the links, and I’ll get back to you soon.

Susan Jones writes romantic drama with a touch of humour, and historical sagas as Lydia King. She lives in North Warwickshire, and loves walking through the beautiful woodlands where she lives, and gardening and reading are her pastimes.

  • Around the garden in June

    Hello to all my followers, and hope all is well in your worlds. The garden is looking colourful at the moment, so thought I’d pop out and take some pics for you to enjoy. I always thought the red valarian was sea pink, until I looked it up just now. I’ve done some pink geranium…

  • Spring is on it’s way.

    It’s great to get up early and have it light for going out to work. And the eclipse was great looking at it through a welding mask that a passing welder happened to lend me. There are lots of advantages to an early morning cleaning job, the main one being money in the bank at…

  • March Giggle blog.

    I do realise I’m a bit late with this, but now I’m here and have a couple of giggles for you this merry month of March. Our little grandaughter, loves looking at her mummy while she’s drinking her milk, and dropping off to sleep. So this one night, she was studying Ann’s face, and then…

  • February Giggle blog.

    Recently, on a walk around the block; (it’s cold, so long walks can wait until springtime), we bumped into a lady with a bijon frise dog.  I’ve seen pictures of cakes that look like these dogs, they’re cute. So when I said in my doggie talking voice, ‘Oh, you look like a cake’ the owner…

    Originally posted on novelreading: As it happens, right now my wife and I are eagerly awaiting the arrival of our second child. In fact, the little chap / lady was due on Tuesday, so is already three days late as I write this. Anyway, the reason I mention this personal detail is that after finishing…

  • Books I’m reading.

    I’m reading a great book at the moment.  ‘Snuff’ by Terry Pratchett.  Extremely funny in an unassuming kind of way.  Another one I’m reading is, by Alexander McCall Smith – A Conspiracy of friends.  This too is witty and cleverly written in everyday sort of way.  Rosemary Gemmell’s Dangerous Deceit is thoroughly gripping, so I’m turning the pages…
