How winning a novel writing prize led to a new career in crime fiction
Jane Bettany is the author of the DI Isabel Blood crime novels, set in the fictional Derbyshire town of Bainbridge, and a cosy crime series featuring amateur sleuth Violet Brewster, also set in Derbyshire. Jane’s debut novel won the 2019 Gransnet and HQ novel writing competition.
Jane will talk about how she went from writing short stories to being the author of police procedural and cosy crime novels, and answer questions about how she plots and writes her books.
