Judith Lennox
Biography
Judith Lennox began her writing career about twenty years ago. Born
in Salisbury, Wiltshire, the second of four siblings, she spent most
of her childhood living in a remote part of Hampshire. She read
English at Lancaster University and spent the next ten years doing
various part-time jobs, including writing scientific abstracts and
playing the piano for ballet classes, at the same time as bringing
up her three sons. When her youngest son started playgroup, she used
her free hours to write her first historical novel, Reynardine,
which was eventually published by Hamish Hamilton. After publishing
three more historical novels, she began to write sagas set in the
first half of the twentieth century. The second of these, The Winter
House, was a best-seller in Britain and Germany, and was shortlisted
for the Romantic Novel of the Year award. Judith Lennox's novels are
published widely in Europe; her next novel, A Step in the Dark, will
be published by Hodder Headline in August 2006. |
