The Wrong Knickers and Research.

I’ve been itching since forever to get down to the south-west point of Galicia and visit the Castro at A Guarda. It’s the place where Amalie meets up with the boatmen from her village and collects her goods to sell. Although there are many photographs of the stone houses, ruined and reconstructed, on the internet,…

The Mogard

Joel first noticed it Monday on his way home from school. He’d been kicking lumps of concrete along the weed choked path behind the shops, and muttering dark retributions under his breath. ‘It wasn’t my fault. I was chucking it into the bin. How could I know Miss Evans would walk in at that moment.’…

Podcasts

I received an invitation, along with millions of others, to link my blog to a podcasting company, Anchor.fm. Participating in podcasting has been on my to-do list for about three years, for me a natural progression from writing to reading stories out loud, and, as a bonus, reaching a wider audience. I found the post-cast…

Jacqueline Vincent Children’s Author

Thank you to S Bush for the invitation to write for her blog, The Good Life in Galicia, about my children’s stories. A combination of my passion for horses, a love of Enid Blyton’s adventure stories, and a fascination for history inspired me to write my first book for children. Amalie, A Perilous Journey, The…
