We’re excited to announce that author Ruth Leigh will be visiting the Harwich Arts & Heritage Centre on Wednesday 17th May (1pm to 3pm) as part of the Inklings Creative Writing Group’s monthly meet-up. It’s Free to attend so pop along and make the most of this great opportunity!
Ruth is a novelist and freelance writer who lives in beautiful East Suffolk along with three children, one husband, a kitten, two budgies, six chickens and two quail.
She’s been writing content and blogs for charities and small Suffolk businesses for the last thirteen years and loves adding value with words. She published her first novel, The Diary of Isabella M Smugge, in February 2021. The second novel, The Trials of Isabella M Smugge followed in October 2021.
The third in the series, The Continued Times of Isabella M Smugge, will be available for pre-orders in September 2022 and be in the shops in October.
Ruth learned to read aged four and hasn’t stopped since. Her first piece of fiction was produced on sugar paper and written with crayons back in Class Three at primary school. She was surprised and pleased to be given a gold star for it and has hoped for more of the same ever since.
Ruth’s freelance clients include several Christian charities, a radio station, a florist, an estate agent and a trainer. There’s nothing she likes better than taking some raw data and turning it into a polished piece of prose. Her favourite ever compliment from a client is this. “You can throw Ruth a few bones and she’ll produce a delicious bowl of soup.”
