I’m so delighted to be able to say that Deixis Press will be publishing my historical novel – Blue Hawk – this summer.
Set in mid-17th century rural Gloucestershire, at the height of the Stroudwater woollen industry, Blue Hawk tells the story of a weaver’s daughter with a fascination for colour, who defies deep-rooted custom and personal tragedy to create a role for herself in the dyeing business. The plot is inspired by a number of real-life stories and story fragments from the period, and touches on themes of sisterhood, friendship & betrayal, and displacement, set in a time of great social change.
The cover is being worked on as we speak, and I’m really looking forward to sharing it with you. In the meantime, do have a look at some of the other authors in the Deixis Press stable – https://deixis.press/authors Proud to be among them!
