Jane Austen: Daddy's Girl

A native of Jane Austen's beloved county of Hampshire, Zöe Wheddon has been married to Matt, (a stationery salesman, who keeps her supplied with post-it notes and gorgeous notebooks) for 30 years. They live in a North Hampshire village, on the outskirts of the town that they both grew up in, with their three grown up children and cat Princess Leia.

A perfectly imperfect local historian and aspiring writer, as the writer of her blog Zöe writes articles and book reviews on matters relating to friendship, self-compassion and personal development at mrswheddon.wordpress.com.

When she is not researching or writing she can be found in the classroom teaching Spanish and French or singing ABBA songs loudly in her kitchen.
