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.

  • Hello June and I’m in July Writing Magazine.

    Hello everyone, hope your June is going well so far. I had my monthly writing magazine through the letterbox a few days ago, and I’m in there. Talking about how old diaries can reveal good things. It’s hard not to throw pages away, especially as the house gets filled with folders, but I really love…

    Hello, hope you’re all keeping well. Thanks to everyone who has been buying my books, and if you haven’t already, here’s where you can find them all.

  • Publication Day, Pride of Paradise Lane.

    I’ll let the book speak for itself. Hope you like it. It’s a midland’s saga, with all the accent, and other stuff that you get in 1915. Now I feel like a proper tea leaf cuppa and a toasted by the fire crumpet. I am going to do book boxes. Being positive everyone will want…

  • Catching up

    End of the year, and time to check how the year has been. I finished the midlands saga, and sent it off to first agent, who wanted to read the whole story. Liked it but didn’t want to take it any further. So same again, try and try again is the motto for getting an…

  • From our Warwickshire kitchen

So yesterday, I made green tomato chutney, and also a salsa sauce to go with the lasagne I’m going to make tomorrow. Today, I’m tidying up the writing office, as the wool from knitting…
