My top author of the week this week is an incredible author and a wonderful lady, so I’m really happy to be able to showcase her work here. Elaine Roberts writes popular heartwarming tales of friendship during wartime, for Aria, Head of Zeus. I’m sure that most of you know Elaine’s books already, but here they are:
The Foyles Bookshop Girls
The Foyles Bookshop Girls At War
Christmas At The Foyles Bookshop
The West End Girls
Elaine had a dream to write for a living. She completed her first novel in her twenties and received her first very nice rejection. Life then got in the way until circumstances made her re-evaluate her life, and she picked up her dream again in 2010. She joined a creative writing class, The Write Place, in 2012 and shortly afterwards had her first short story published. She was thrilled when many more followed and started to believe in herself.
Asa member of the Romantic Novelists’ Association and The Society of Women Writers & Journalists, Elaineattends many conferences, workshops, seminars and wonderful parties. Meeting other writers gives her encouragement, finding most face similar problems.
Elaine and her late husband, Dave, have five children who have flown the nest. Home is in Dartford, Kent and is always busy with their children, grandchildren, grand dogs and cats visiting. Without her wonderful family and supportive friends, she knows the dream would never have been realised.
