Letter from Sharon

Thank you so much for reading The Secret Life of Winnie Cox. I do hope you enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed writing it.

When I write I am always thinking of you, the reader, and feel somehow connected to you. It's thrilling for me to know that out there you, a perfect stranger, are reading the words I wrote, following a story that came from my heart; somehow, this makes you not a stranger, but a friend. Isn't it wonderful how words, stories, can connect us all?

I'd love to know how you reacted to this story. Did it make you sad? Did it make you cry? Did it make you think? Did it take you back to the past? To a country that you perhaps did not know before? Which of the characters did you like the best, and which one did you love to hate? Did it make you see history from a new perspective? Did it change you in any way? I'd be delighted to hear your reaction, and the very best way of getting back to me is through a review, even a short one.

Getting feedback from readers is always wonderful, and it also helps to persuade other readers to pick up this, or another one of my books, for the first time.

I also hope you are eager to hear how Winnie's story continues – because it does! Yes – this is the first of a trilogy, and in the next two books you will find out how her life continues. Does she marry George? Does her mother return to British Guiana? Does Yoyo take over the plantation? All of these questions will be answered in my next book, coming out next year! And here's a big secret – you can take a sneak peek by jumping a few decades: you'll meet Winnie again as a wise Grandma in my previously published novel, The Small Fortune of Dorothea Q. She doesn't play the main role in that book, but she's there all right!
