| LINDA SOLE was
born in Swindon. Her family moved to Ely in Cambridgeshire when
she was nine, and Linda attended the local school but left at
fifteen to work as a hairdresser in her father's business. She
was married at eighteen and ran her own hairdressing business
for some years before moving to Cambridge, although Linda has
now moved to somewhere a bit quieter in Cambridgeshire. She
started writing in 1976, combining this with helping her husband
to run his antique shop.
Writing as Anne
Herries, Linda won the 2004 RNA Romance Award and the Betty
Neels Trophy. She lives in Cambridgeshire. After many happy
years of taking their holidays in Spain she and her husband,
now have a second home in Norfolk. Being only a short drive,
they can visit for a few days at a time, which suits their
busy lifestyle these days. They are only just across the road
from the sea, and can see it from their windows. At home and
at the sea they enjoy watching the wildlife and have many
visitors to their gardens, particularly squirrels. Anne loves
watching their antics and spoils both them and her birds shamelessly.
She also loves to see the flocks of geese and other birds
flying in over the sea during the autumn, to winter in the
milder climes of this country. Anne loves to write about the
beauty of nature and sometimes puts a little into her books,
though they are mostly about love and romance. She writes
for her own enjoyment and to give pleasure to her readers.
