The Guns of Retribution launch!

October 22, 2011 by Icy Sedgwick 1 Comment

I hired the back room of Bob Trollop’s, a small pub on Newcastle’s Quayside, a room I chose based on the preferences of Grey O’Donnell, the protagonist of Guns. I know that probably sounds extremely weird, but Grey does make his presence felt […]

September 20, 2011 by Icy Sedgwick 1 Comment

As I said in my post about writing historical fiction, a few people asked me questions on Twitter about The Guns of Retribution. As it comes out in paperback on Saturday, I thought I’d answer a few more. Writer Emma Kerry asked me about my writing process, and how the story grew, so I thought […]
