The Shorten Chronicles

Behind the books

The idea for the Shorten Chronicles popped into my head when I was watching an episode of Downton Abbey: how would a modern young woman cope in  a grand house a century ago? The answer of course is 'not very well!'

That premise then grew into a larger tale. Book 1, Stranded, was published in 2020. Book 2, Escape, will be published in 2021. In subsequent books, Sophie and the two boys she loves will have more adventures in different historical times and places, as will Sophie's formidable companion, Charlotte the labradoodle.

Stepping through a hidden portal is just the beginning...

Hi everyone, I'm Rosalind.
I'm based in Gloucestershire, England. I'm with Serafina re technology. I published my first novel last year and getting to grips with building my platform etc is driving me crazy! I write 'time-travel romance,' except my books are really about parallel universes and alternate history, with a dash of humour. The first book in the Shorten Chronicles series is best described as Bridget Jones meets Downton... I wanted to be an author because it meant working in sweatpants, but now everyone is working from home, the novelty has worn off a bit! This is an exciting site and VERY thorough. It has taken me four hours to put all the info into my profile and books. Putting in the sample in particular proved problematic. It didn't like Word formatting. I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone.
