Liz has been given many awards, most recently, the Romantic Novelists’ Association Outstanding Achievement Award. After writing 70 books for Harlequin Mills and Boon, Liz has now turned to crime, signing with Joffe Books for three “Maybridge Mysteries”, the first of which, Murder Among the Roses, was published on 18th April 2023.

Liz has recently moved to West Sussex (it’s Pooh Bear country) and she is badly missing the garden she created with her late husband. Her new ground floor apartment has a neglected courtyard garden and she has been busy planting spring bulbs, shrubs and roses, to create an outdoor space where she can take her laptop on warm days.

Liz hates exercise of any kind but has started weekly aqua classes – it’s energetic, but her feet don’t hurt and she doesn’t get sweaty.

If Liz had to choose between giving up chocolate or cheese, she’d give up chocolate. However, she has no intention of giving up either.

Spare time is spent with her grandchildren, reading, and meeting fellow writers.

Fun fact: Liz’s writing career started with picture stories for D C Thomson’s much-loved Twinkle magazine for little girls.
