Celia Anderson was delighted to be given the opportunity to join the author team at Boldwood in early 2024, and is now ready to start a whole new chapter of her own. She enjoys writing contemporary fiction featuring older protagonists, although a wide age range of characters can always be found in her books. Previously a teacher and assistant head, Celia writes full time these days but loves to chat to other authors and readers, and often spends far too much time browsing social media. She is an enthusiastic member of the Romantic Novelists Association, having proudly graduated from their New Writers' Scheme in 2013. The RNA is an amazing source of good advice and a place to meet like-minded, supportive people who will happily talk about books for hours on end. What could be better? Born and bred in the Midlands, Celia has long been tempted by the idea of living near the sea, and her dream at last became a reality in 2023 when she moved to the south coast. This has meant that a whole new range of story-making boosts are available, and she’s currently working flat out to explore them all. A fresh writing space and grandchildren on hand to cuddle, plus a busy promenade and beach just down the road – there’s no shortage of places to people-watch. Alternatively, give her a long train journey and her notebook and pen will also work overtime as she shamelessly eavesdrops and watches the world go by. Celia loves flowers and flower arranging but tries to avoid any kind of gardening that involves digging up worms. She plays the piano very badly and is a crossword addict. A doting grandma to Ida, Levi and Peggy, she has tried several times to learn to knit them jumpers without much success (or joy). Some hobbies are probably best left alone. She loves walking, cooking, reading, more reading, having large bubbly baths, eating, and also drinking wine. Over the years, she has found that all of these activities bar the first two may be done simultaneously, although this can be messy. With Boldwood's innovative and forward-thinking approach to publishing as her inspiration, Celia is loving exploring brand new settings and pastures new. Life Begins at 50! is the start of the Willowbrook series followed by A New Lease of Life and Living the Good Life. All feature the resifdents of Willowbrook village and the infamous Saga Louts, who are determined to blast through their later years with style and naughtiness. Life in Willowbrook is many things, but never dull. Next up is Life in the Old Girls Yet - more adventures for the three unpredictable ladies and their friends,this time with an added road trip through France. Celia's backlist includes two revised stories (formerly Moondancing and Little Boxes.) These are Dancing Under the Moon and Here Comes the Sun. Molly is about to have a lot of new experiences. Is she ready? It's now or never. Why not join Celia in her adventures with Boldwood? She will be very happy to have you along for the ride...
