2017 Winner of the Marie M Irvine Literary Excellence Award for Historical fiction. The harshness of 19th century life for women as seen through the eyes of a young bride. Margery Blake is nothing but a pawn in family affairs, and her marriage is seen as a good match. Margery has no power, or control over her life and endures her husband’s rights to her body in order to produce an heir. Margery soon realises ‘husband’ is merely another title for owner, beater, brute, bully and evil. She finds friendship in the unlikeliest of places.

She lives in North Wales with her husband and daughter, with a multitude of animals. This novella, Diary of Margery Blake, is a step out of her comfort zone - with no ghosts in sight! However, P.J says, "This book wrote itself more or less. I'd feel this woman's energy, and I'd write whatever came. I'll try to find out one day if this Margery actually existed! it's a voice that had to be heard. This cruelty towards women throughout the ages and continues today, is an abomination and must stop now. We are all equal and should be treated as such."
