Saturday’s Child (Heroines Born on Different Days of the Week #7)

Rosemary Morris

Genre: Historical



https://amazon.com/dp/B089MBVPZ4?tag=intamAnnie, a young promising lady, is bravely shouldering the responsibility of earning a living after the unexpected sad death of her father. Major Tarrant and his wife invite her to take up a job with them, but she would rather make it all by herself. They had already done enough in offering shelter for her and her father after they came back to Sussex impoverished by the Waterloo battle. However, danger is looming close-by in the form of an abusive merchant’s son, Bert, who wants to marry her without her consent. Living alone in her father’s house that she is working to make it to a boarding house, she has to ensure her safety by hiring footmen. However, she may not be able to protect herself from one of her friends who is lying in wait ready to strike.

This is definitely a fine Cinderella-themed book that any reader could ever come across. With a heroine who defies all the societal laws about class and stature to build a beautiful enterprise on her own, the reader is left with more than pure admiration for the author’s ability to sculpt such an elegant piece of literary art. The gentle and sweet tone of the novel carries one’s mind from the beginning of Annie’s journey to the end. Throw in a good measure of well-researched historical facts, and the reader has a whole pot of golden goodies. The presence of an unlikely cunning villain adds a unique thrill to the read. “Saturday’s Child” is undoubtedly a precious novel that gifts everything a reader would ever wish for in a regency historical romance in a generous measure.

Rocky Path to Novelist's Successful Publication

  Rocky Path to Publication by Novelist, Rosemary Morris.   Many people daydream about what they would like to accomplish. I am fortunate because my dream of becoming a published historical novelist has come true. Looking back, it seems that since childhood I prepared to share my tales of times past. Maybe, while I was in my cot, a good fairy blessed me with a vivid imagination. If so, it was too lively for my parents, who couldn’t relate to it. They wanted a child with her feet firmly planted on the ground. Instead, my head was either filled with history, make-believe people, or the book I was reading.   So many obstacles intervened between my dream and reality. I have three very painful memories connected with writing and reading. The first, is my mother’s refusal to give me some paper on which to write a story when I was ten years old. The second is of borrowing a book every day from the library, and the librarian’s doubt that I had read all of them. The third ...

More Thoughts About How to Write a Novel

  Thoughts About How to Write a Novel   I can’t remember how many times people have told me they would write a novel if they had time. Serious authors, published or unpublished, find time. It is important to establish a routine. I recommend an achievable schedule, fifteen minutes or more a day, a fixed period at the weekends, or writing a set number of words every day. If you have an idea, don’t dream about writing. Begin with the first sentence and continue to the end. Then revise and edit the drafts until the final one, in the correct format, is ready to submit to an agent or publisher. (Should you be in doubt, pay an editor to streamline it.) If your novel is rejected, don’t be discouraged, either polish your novel or begin a new one. I wrote eight novels before one was accepted. By then, I knew more about how to write. I revised five of my earlier novels, and each year submitted one to the Romantic Novelists Association for a reader’s report. Subsequently each nove...

Love Affair with Writing

  My love affair with history, reading and writing began when I was very young. At five, I agonised over a peasant woman scolding King Alfred for burning the cakes.at a very early age. I agonised over the story of King Alfred burning the cakes. I thought he should be seated on a throne, dressed beautiful clothes, and imagined a gold crown studded with jewels on his head. Aged ten I wept at my image Princess Elizabeth, daughter of Anne Boleyn and Henry VIII, seated on the stairs outside Traitors’ Gate at the Tower of London for fear that like her mother her head would be chopped off.   she would be executed like her ill-fated mother. Later, I thrilled to Elizabeth’s famous speech which began: - I know I have the body of a weak, feeble woman; but I have the heart and stomach of a king, and of a king of England too . As a teenager I visualised myself in love with a dashing cavalier, who fought for King Charles I of England, and booing Oliver Cromwell, who sanctioned regicide...
