This it it. The last book I'll ever publish and it's the much anticipated final book in the superb E.G. Rawlings trilogy. Launched tonight in London, 'Quo Vadis E.G. Rawlings?' brings to a conclusion the twists and turns of this epic trilogy. I wish author Jane McCulloch, pictured below with her friend Judi Dench a fantastic evening. Elite Reviewing Group says: “I’ve grown to love Rawlings, Isobel, Felix and all the eccentric friends who surround them and I’m very sad that this is the final book in the trilogy. They will live with me for a very long time to come. 5 stars.” And I completely agree. If you haven't read the series, they're available from Waterstones, Amazon or by clicking this link https://jjmoffs.co.uk/product/quo-vardis-eg-rawlings/

A massive thank you to everyone who came and helped us plant saplings and bluebells in Clumber Park yesterday. It was brilliant fun and very special to be part of something that will be around for decades to come. Who knew, when you wrote The Woodsman, Stephie, that it would lead to this? And thanks to the brilliant thinking of Nolan Freebury, we all have a What3Words grid reference so that we can find our planting area and watch it grow! Nice one Nolan! Klair took loads of photos which we’ll share with everyone once she’s edited them. Thank you again. What a team!

We need help! Can you help us plant a new wood in Clumber Park on Saturday (29th January)?

Through the sale of novel ‘The Woodsman’, the author and JJMoffs have been able to fund the purchase of 400 saplings of hawthorn, blackthorn and hazel, plus 1000 Bluebells.

We are absolutely thrilled to see this project come to fruition, and grateful to Clumber’s rangers for working with us. All we need now …. is to plant 400 trees!

Meet us at the entrance to the caravan site on Lime Tree Avenue at 10:30am. All planting equipment is provided by the National Trust. Bring the kids and plant as many or as few trees as you like.

We’ll be grateful for any help you can give us. It’ll be very special watching this new wood grow and develop over the decades to come.

So pull on your wellies and let’s plant our wood! Bring a picnic if you’d like to. If you can help, please comment below. Thank you so much in advance xx 🌳

“Fine old Christmas, with the snowy hair and ruddy face, had done his duty that year in the noblest fashion, and had set off his rich gifts of warmth and colour with all the heightening contrast of frost and snow.”

Something that is as synonymous with Christmas as Santa Claus and present-giving is the Christmas tree. Each year millions of households spend hours decorating their trees with lights and baubles … and those lights can cause some arguments! What the heck happens in the eleven months they’re in the loft to make them so tangled? But where did the Christmas tree come from and why is it so significant?
