Hello!

Thanks for joining me!

Hello!

I’m Lily Joseph and I’m a romantic comedy author based in the North-East of England; a setting that features heavily in my writing. Sorry for the upcoming cliché, but I’ve been obsessed with books and writing since I was a child and I’m working hard on my dream to publish my first novel.

I joined the Romantic Novelists’ Association in 2021 as part of their New Writers’ Scheme, and signed with a literary agent (Clare Coombes at Liverpool Literary Agency) later that year. Since then I’ve completed two novels, and I’m hopefully on the cusp of sharing some very good news.

I also dabble in writing crime fiction and my current work-in-progress was shortlisted for the 2023 Lindisfarne Prize. Outside of my writing life I work as a dentist (trigger warning for those that aren’t a fan), and live in North Yorkshire with my partner, two teens and two cats, none of whom are interested in books whatsoever. At least the cats have an excuse.
