Hillery Baptiste

Based in London and from the shoe-making mecca of Northampton, Hillery has fond memories of exciting childhood summers spent visiting relatives across the capital: soaking up the loud atmosphere, sampling pepper-laced meals and listening to the comforting harmonies of ‘home’ accents.

Having worked in the creative industry for many years, Baptiste fulfilled a long-held dream of honing her writing skills by completing a master’s degree in creative writing. A Name in History was planned during her studies and centres on one woman’s efforts to seek the truth behind a closely guarded family secret linked to an unfamiliar name in their past. Touching on secrets hiding in plain sight, the story creates a memorably emotional vista of history that, seamlessly and disturbingly, continues to shape our collective futures.

A Name in History is out in the spring of 2023.

S J Briggs

Steve Briggs was born in Blackpool in 1966, and ‘Tall in the face of Adversity’ tells his story. He grew up from humble beginnings within a military family. Briggs endured years of child abuse from his former schoolteacher and Peter Righton, the founder of PIE (Paedophile Information Exchange), in the 1970s.  

Briggs enlisted in the army and served for several years, wounded and discharged from the military. Briggs has faced many obstacles in his life. He was homeless in London for a few years and built a business from scratch. Steve Briggs finally met his abuser in court forty years after the incident.

Briggs’ unbiased account will bring tears to people’s eyes about a soldier’s incredible bravery and the scars he bore for years as a child abused by people who should have protected him.

The memoir is available from the 30th of November 2020.
