I was born in Leicester, England, and lived in our cobbler’s shop with my parents and sister. It was an old house and most definitely haunted, but I didn’t find out until I left that my great uncle had hung himself in the living room! But I think our ghost might have been older than that.

What's new in your world?

My news

Well, from a personal point of view, there is none - thank goodness! I'm still here, getting over the heart attack pretty well, and life is turning back to something like normal. The world outside - that's another story, and it's not pretty, but we're not here for that, are we? There are enough people talking about the world without mine added to the cacophony!

I'm still planning and beginni

Quotes by Lynne Connolly (?)

“Never judge yourself by the narrow
standards of others. What we do together here is our
business, nobody else's. Never, never doubt what we have
just done is anything but love. Never let yourself be restricted
by thoughts of what society would have you do, what it would
accept or condemn. Please promise me that.”
― Lynne Connolly, Venice

“Connie threw back her head, opened her mouth and cried to the heavens, as every sensation built and exploded inside her, fireworks and waterfalls, starburst and throbbing heat.”
― Lynne Connolly, Rogue in Red Velvet

“Impossible. But you know I'm there in spirit. In the middle of a ball, at the theater or even at court I'm here, inside you. Where I belong.”
