My latest news is that I’m just publishing a new biography. Its title is
"A Pageant Truly Play’d".
This book tells the stories of an unusual couple who achieved much when apart and more when married. Constance Smedley and Maxwell Armfield were born towards the end of the 1800s, and both of them attended Birmingham School of Art, though not at the same time.
Despite having a serious disability, Constance’s successes included writing over 40 books. Meanwhile Maxwell’s passion was his thoughtful painting.
However, an unexpected incident occurred while I was writing "
A Pageant Truly Play’d", because I discovered that my father and Maxwell Armfield had been close friends. This altered what I intended to do and how I was going to do it.
