BIOGRAPHY
Carol Mottershead writes with the kind of intensity that borders on possession. Her debut novel, Joan – Put on a Happy Face, didn’t just occupy her thoughts—it took over her life. For two years, she lived and breathed Joan’s world, often forgetting where Carol ended and Joan began. Her sons had to remind her, “You are not Joan!”—though she’s still not entirely convinced.

Driven by a love of layered truths and a flair for the conspiratorial, Carol’s imagination is matched only by her devotion to research. She chased every thread, every whisper of possibility, until Joan felt as real as any living soul—so real, in fact, Carol still half-expects to bump into her in the Lake District.

This book is more than fiction. It’s a reckoning, a journey, and a love letter to the kind of character who refuses to stay on the page.

Happy reading—and don’t be surprised if Joan lingers.

HAPPY READING!
