LATEST NEWS - THE DIAMOND DAGGER AWARD - MARTINA COLE

I snapped this happy duo (the late Elizabeth Lord (Ivy) and Martina Cole) some years ago at one of our SWWJ lunches in London. Both these former members of our Society were such good friends and both wonderfully successful in their different writing genres. 

We lost Ivy last year and miss her very much. In the 30 years I knew her, she had written more than 30 books, many of which can still be accessed through Amazon and most libraries. 

I heard today that Martina has been awarded the Crime Writers' Award highest honour, the Diamond Dagger as the UK's bestselling female crime writer.  Martina is the author of 25 crime dramas with total sales of more than 17 million books. Congratulations to our super friends and families.
