Coronation Street Blog: Winner announced in our Pearl of Pit Lane competition

Congratulations go to Lisa Davies who has won a copy of Pearl of Pit Lane in our special blog competition.

Stuck indoors? Want something good and gritty to read? Well, look no further. As well as being editor of the Coronation Street Blog and a huge Coronation Street fan, I'm also a novelist. My gritty sagas are set in 1919, at the end of the first world war and if you like your soaps, you'll love my books. They're full of feisty females, villains, drama and fantastic women, the heroines of each book that you'll fall for from page one. And with a lifetime of soap-watching behind me, they're action-packed too!

My new novel Pearl of Pit Lane is now out in paperback, published by Headline. It's set in 1919 in the northeast coalmining village of Ryhope, which is where I was born and bred.
