Judith Brocklehurst was brought up in England, and it was on visits to the magnificent scenery of Derbyshire that her passion for Jane Austen developed. After emigrating to Canada with her husband and two young daughters, she worked as a teacher, newspaper reporter and columnist. Writing Jane Austen sequels was her greatest pleasure.
