I live in the middle of rural Suffolk, UK, and am currently owned by a slinky black cat who's far too clever for her own good. In my spare time, I'm an amateur historian/archaeologist, and in dry daylight hours am usually out on a field somewhere with a metal detector and/or a trowel. I've added quite a few things to the Heritage England Record and the Portable Antiquities Scheme; but what really fascinates me is the stories behind the artefacts. My first historical novel, Sheriff and Priest, is about the story of a local boy made good - Wimer the Chaplain was born in Dodnash in Suffolk of a poor Saxon family, but made it to be a confidant of Henry ll, holding down the job of High Sheriff for all Norfolk and Suffolk. Then he gave it all up and came home to found a Priory... finding the original site of that Priory (not where it's shown on the map) is still one of my proudest discoveries. I'm equally proud that the book has won the "Discovered Diamond" and "B.R.A.G. Medallion" awards! I love writing a series of short stories about Henry Baker, a boy who finds a magic pencil on the way to school - and who has lots of adventures as the pencil makes anything he draws, become real! He draws some historical artefacts, as well as things to get him out of the sort of trouble any 9 year old boy can find. I hope you find as much pleasure in my books as I get from creating them. I've added my Twitter account so you can contact me; I also have a Facebook page under my name. I also have an Etsy shop - MagpiesRevenge - where I showcase jewellery made from the flints and coins I pick up fieldwalking, plus the odd book or two. Thanks for reading! Nicky.
