COMPETITION TIME! Gritty Manchester novels to be won
We have a very special competition here on the Coronation Street Blog which is open to all fans in the UK and overseas.
Author Emma Hornby writes gritty historical sagas and two of her novels - Manchester Moll and The Orphans of Ardwick - are both set in 1800s Bolton and Manchester.
Emma began writing after researching her family history. The colourful folk she unearthed gave her plenty of inspiration; like the characters in her novels, many generations of her family eked out life amidst the squalor and poverty of Lancashire's slums.
Visit Emma's website at emmahornby.com for more. She's also on Twitter and Facebook
To be in with a chance of winning a copy of both of these novels, all you have to do is answer the following question correctly and email your answer to me at glenda.sunderland@gmail.com with the word EMMA in your email's subject line.
Good luck! Here's your question and you'll find the answer on Emma Hornby's website.
1. Which Lancashire seaside town did author Emma Hornby once work in at a rock factory?
Deadline for entries is 5pm on Sunday 22nd April 2018. Winner will be drawn at random from all correct entries received and announced here on the Coronation Street Blog.
Entries from Loquax, moneysavingsexpert and all other competition entry websites will not be included in the draw.
