About me:

You want to know something about me? Really? What can I tell you – I’m British, although I’ve lived and passed through many other parts of the world. Currently I live in the north of Scotland, living on haggis and whisky and raspberries, and enjoying the endless summer days when it never quite gets dark. The endless winter nights – not so much. I share my view of the Black Isle with my husband.

About my writing:

I write traditional Regency romances as Mary Kingswood. There’s no sex in these books, although some less savory aspects of Regency societies exist in the background.

I also write epic fantasy with a romantic twist as Pauline M Ross (WARNING: this means the books contain some sex and profanity). You can find out more about the Brightmoon world here.

I was a finalist in Amazon’s KDP Storyteller UK competition for 2021, which is a somewhat amazing honour. The book is Stranger at the Villa, and it was one of five books chosen. The winner (Rachel McLean – well done, Rachel!) was chosen by the judges (after reading all five books) on October 21st in London.

About my book reviews:

I read a lot of Regency romance and a little of other genres too. You can find all the books I’ve read and my reviews on Goodreads under my Pauline M Ross name here. I also post my Regency reviews here on this blog.

My archived reviews, including mystery and general fiction, plus some random essays, are at Pauline’s Fantasy Reviews.
