Author Jessica Redland on her favourite Yorkshire places:
Jessica Redland is the author of 20 best-selling novels. She writes stories of love, friendship, family and community set on the Yorkshire coast, Yorkshire Wolds and the Lake District. Born in Teesside, she has lived in Scarborough for nearly 20 yearsIt has to be Richmond as two things happened there which changed my life. I took a career break from HR in 2003, relocated back to the north and opened a specialist teddy bear shop on Richmond’s Finkle Street.
On a regular visit, it can be so peaceful, drinking in stunning views across both North and South Bay. During an event, it’s a hive of activity and a great atmosphere. We’ve attended some amazing events and re-enactments there over the years.When I started writing, I didn’t have a sense of where I’d set my books other than ‘the north’. When I visited my now-husband in Scarborough, I found my setting. My Whitsborough Bay books are a blend of Scarborough, Whitby and Robin Hood’s Bay.
