Speaking about #ACruelCorpse at a 'meet the authors' session at Chalfont St Peter Community Library, along with Denise Beddows, Tony Ferguson, Sherry Hostler and (via the picture I am holding) Hannah Snell, the real 18th century female soldier, and model for my Hayden Gray.
Iโve just finished #ACruelCorpse, written by my cousin Ben Bergonzi. Itโs an 18th-century military historical novel - not my go-to genre - but I enjoyed it. Jasper, a soldier, is also a molly - a rent boy - while Hayden is a woman who disguises herself as a man. Give it a go.

Today I learned that some people think that if you want to review a book on Amazon, you have to have bought it from Amazon. Not so. It can be bought from anywhere or even a present. **Reviews on Amazon really help**

The town of Berkhamsted where you can have a fascinating tour of the Castle (Berkhamsted Castle Trust) walk the cobbled streets, and pay ยฃ2.65 for a pint of real ale at The Crown (Wetherspoons). Recommended. #researchtrip #HistoricalFiction #WritingCommunity #acruelcorpse
I wonder what might be up these stairs, or along this corridor? The settings of my dreams?

Windmills are very evocative. Advanced technology in their day, now quaint. But the internal machinery is dangerous, as discovered by Hayden Gray, heroine of #ACruelCorpse

It's very satisfying when I find eighteenth century clocks keeping as good time as my 1970s watch

Sometimes I am riding my bicycle along a lane and I wish John Constable and his easel were with me (and I don't even live in Suffolk!)

When folklore comes to life it is endlessly stimulating for storytelling. For example, a passageway in the town of Warwick is called Tink a Tank.

West Wycombe is elegant but raunchy in a very eighteenth century way. The entrance to Venus' Parlour is supposed to look like what you think it looks like - part of the female anatomy

'There was a window showing a distant view of the Westmoreland mountains; as she walked down the room, their blue-grey curves rippled through the flaws in the glass. It seemed a long walk.'

'They took him into the Keep and laid him to rest on a bier in the old chapel. Inside the massive stone walls it was silent, and the round arches rose above in the gloom, peaceful in their symmetry. Hayden sat with him for a while.'
From Chapter 28

'Hayden, dressed as a maid, was making her way along the battlement gangway, a long wooden platform built onto the inside of the old wall.
At the end of the gangway three steps led up to a closed oak door with iron studs, with a big keyhole. There was no handle.'

Very pleased to have a review of A Cruel Corpse by Katherine Mezzacappa, author of The Maiden of Florence, in which she says 'An intriguing and absorbing historical novel, one of the most original I have read in a while.'

Some of the films set in the 17th and 18th centuries that contributed to the world of my novel A Cruel Corpse, published a month ago. The daily extracts will finish now, but Hayden and Jasper *will be back* in a new adventure

'The soldiers had been ordered to watch, but Jasper could not bear to look at this slow death. He lowered his eyes and stared at the the curving walls. There were little gun ports, and he occupied his mind wondering what weight of gun might be behind them.'
#ACruelCorpse
'Jasper was on the coachโs box, the reins to the pair of horses in his hands. 'A sensitive touch on a leather strap is something I can usually manage pretty well.' He smiled as he looked ahead, above the four bobbing points of the horsesโ ears.'
From Chapter 37
