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.

  • August Blog

    All going on in the garden, and book news. Hello everyone, haven’t we had some good summer days? As I’m typing this it’s been a day of heavy rainfall, but much needed for the garden and the woodlands, so can’t complain can we? I’ve read some great books lately, so let me tell you about…

    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.

  • 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…

  • From our Warwickshire kitchen

    Hello, friends and followers. I was so happy to have my website updated, that I must have deleted the pickle news. 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…

  • Romantic writing

    Hello and hope you’re all enjoying the sunshine, rain, wind, howling gale did you have all that last night?

  • May blog post

    News and jottings from this month at the writing desk. Happy May time, or Beltane if you’re into the witchy woo stuff. I love all things mystical, and have lots of tarot packs, several crystal balls, and tons of crystals I wear and use all the time. Also numerology is getting quite addictive. Today I…
