Margaret Mounsdon

Second Time Around has just been accepted by Thorpe as a large print novel.

Widowed single parent Elise Trent thought no one could replace her husband Peter until she met policeman Mark Hampson. She is forced to seriously re-think her life when her mother in law accepts a proposal of marriage from long time companion Seth Baxter and her student daughter Angie and Mark's son Kyle get involved with an action group. Then Elise and Mark are further thrown together by a spate of country house burglaries.



The Heart Of The Matter has also just been accepted by Thorpe.
In order to save Georgia Cabs' reputation, Georgia Jones is forced to be award winning screenwriter Dominic Talbot's personal on set driver after he leaves his briefcase in the back of one of her cabs. When one of Dominic's crew inadvertently chops branches off The Magic Tree during filimng and Georgia explains about the curse, Dominic scoffs at the story until a cameraman breaks a leg, props go missing and the leading man catches chicken pox.
As this is my first Pocketeers blog I hope everyone will make allowances for any mistakes. My name is Margaret Mounsdon and I enjoy writing modern day Pocket Novels.
My above two novels were published in January, on the same day as it happens, one by My Weekly and one by People's Friend and as you can see will be going into Large Print.

    1. Just got round to replying to my comments. Yes it was good to have two novels published on the same day. I don't suppose it will happen again.

  2. It's great that pocket novels often get given a much longer lease of life by being published as Large Print romances. These are available in libraries around the country so the stories get a wide audience. Very inspiring, Margaret, getting two published at the same time! Back to the writing...

  4. Hi Margaret, whoops I forgot to sign that last comment, so have replaced it with this one. Lovely to see you here on the blog and those lovely covers. Second Time Around sounds very topical - only yesterday there was a piece on the radio about the difficult changes in dynamics that can result in families after second marriages. They can really shake things up. Congratulations on your two publications on the same day, I hope you took a photo of the bookstands! Cara Cooper x
