Susan Jones – Writer

recent posts

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.

  • Nail Art

      Over Easter, our Daughter Ann had chance to practice her skills as a creative nail artist. And five-year old Isla was first in the queue to be the model. Notice the colour she chose.

  • Have a lovely Easter

    Enjoy Easter weekend, whichever way you’re going to. We’re still on painting the fence, in-between relaxing, reading, chatting to family who will be popping in.

  • Welcome Teresa Ashby

    It is my greatest pleasure to welcome our all time favorite People’s Friend writer – Teresa Ashby to my blog.

  • Tempting temping.

    Temping week is over, and I had a great time. Really friendly people, and my own little office to answer the phone, and sort the post, tick off a register of who’s in, who’s out on business, and who’s on holidays.  Felt a bit like being the teacher, for a week. I’ve just got to…

  • Having a break.
