Elizabeth Ducie
Under the Chudleigh Phoenix Publications imprint, she has published six books of short stories (four solo collections and two co-authored with a friend). Her debut novel, Gorgito’s Ice Rink, was Runner-Up in the 2015 Self-Published Book of the Year Awards. She went on to publish the Jones Sisters international thrillers and The Coombesford Chronicles, cosy crime set in a fictional Devon village. Book 4 in this series is due out in October 2024.
She also writes, coaches, and teaches on Author Business Foundations, providing indie authors with the skills they need to run their own businesses and publish independently.
At the end of 2023, she stepped down after fourteen years editing the Chudleigh Phoenix Community Magazine, a monthly online newsletter. She is a founder member of Chudleigh Writers' Circle; a former Director of Exeter Literary Festival; a member of ALLi (the Alliance of Independent Authors) and the Crime Writers Association. She is a regular workshop leader at Swanwick Writers' Summer School and The Women in Publishing Summit. She spends far too much time on Facebook and Twitter, but has met some wonderful members of the writing community as a result.
