Guest Julie Cohen

St.PatricksDay
Happy Daylight Saving Time <yawning> and a pre-holiday Happy St. Patrick's Day from the Wenches!

Tomorrow, Nicola Cornick interviews author Julie Cohen, whose latest book, TheJulieCohen Summer of Living Dangerously, is out this month.  Reviewers label the book "warm and funny."  It's the story of Alice Woodstock, who escapes her past by donning period clothing and conducting tours of a stately Regency home. But her past catches up to her when the man who broke her heart returns.

Join us for Julie's interview on Monday, March 12!

Awards and historicals The long list has just been announced for the Orange Prize for fiction by women. Chair Joanna Trollop was quoted in the Guardian as saying, "Yes, there are a fair number of historical novels, but they vary hugely from a gay cabaret artist in Berlin in the second world war to Island-of-wings-cover-imagea preacher going off to deal with lost souls on a Hebridean island in the 1830s." It's the "but" that interests me. It's as if historical fiction being on the list needs some apology.

An Interview with Julie Cohen! Nicola here. I’ve been a fan of Julie Cohen’s writing for a long time, ever since I read Delicious, a Harlequin Mills & Boon contemporary romance. These days Julie writes contemporary novels for Headline and when I discovered that her new book, The Summer of Living Dangerously, has a strong element of the Regency about it, I was very excited! The book lived up to all my expectations; it's warm, emotional, funny and one of the best books I've read in a long time. Nicola: Julie, welcome to the Word Wenches! Please tell us a bit about yourself and how...
