I write historical fiction set in mid-Victorian Whitehaven, in Cumbria and Vancouver Island in Canada. I write interesting stories with strong characters. As a researcher with a PhD in Chinese history from SOAS I aim to make my settings as historically acurate as possible. I run operations from Lorna’s Command Centre which you can find at lornahunting.com

I have also written, as Jocelyn Chatterton, on Chinese Silks and Sewing Tools, and published and written reviews in various academic journals on Chinese history.
