Claire Jordan

About the AuthorBorn and raised in London, England, I left university armed with a fairly good English Literature degree some years ago and with no clear idea of a profession, but the certainty that, although I do love children and can't wait to be a mother myself, I have less than no sense of natural authority (not even hamsters obey me) and therefore that I would make a terrible schoolteacher. So I've had a variety of little jobs, while preserving some time for writing. I also have a bone-deep interest in military history, particularly the horrors of the First World War and American Civil War, and the heroics of the Battle of Britain. I write for the newsletter of a local aircraft museum and am often to be found rescuing long lost war graves from ivy and bindweed in cemeteries all over Kent, where I live very happily with my husband. 'A Man Like Alice' is the second of my unpublished novels and the first we have e-published.
