Jane Byle
Jane was born in Norfolk in the 1960’s and spent much her childhood on the family farm. She was educated at Diss Grammar School and went on from there to train as a nurse in Cambridge. She now lives in Cumbria and although she has lost much of her Norfolk dialect Jane still feels very much part of Norfolk and has used much of the dialect in her work. This, her debut novel although a work of fiction has been inspired by the many colourful characters she has met over the years and is set in Norfolk.
‘I have been privileged to have met many colourful characters over the years who have helped inspire some of the characters for this entirely fictitious book, my first novel.’

I downloaded Autumn Leaves to my Kindle as I was looking for something a bit different to my usually reads. I found it to be a great read, ideal for holidays and chilling out. The story is set in rural Norfolk in the 1970′s when life was so much simpler than it is today with references to times past as the main character’s look back on their earlier years. The book is on the whole really charming, especially with the Norfolk Dialect which adds to the easy going feel of the book. The story line is both dramatic and heart warming. Recommended to anyone with a love of village life, the countryside and the farming communities or just looking for something to curl up with during the dark winter nights.
