About

I am an Australian writer, traveller, and horse rider. I am a lover of all things England and history - with a healthy side of sci-fi and fantasy.

My debut novel 'Exceptionally Unconventional' was written during 2020-21 while my late mother was fighting her final battle with breast cancer. I wrote it in a largely light-hearted way in an effort to keep her spirits up during that time - several of the characters were parodied versions of her acquaintances, so I was very happy to have succeeded in that particular endeavour!

She never got to see it published, but just a few weeks after she passed away, I was offered a contract on it from one of the first publishers I submitted it to. You'll notice the dedication I chose when it finally came time to write one.

I am currently working on my second manuscript.

Story Behind The Book

I began writing this book when my mum was diagnosed with terminal breast cancer, a disease she had been fighting on and off since 2011. I am so grateful that she was able to read it before she passed away, even though she never got to see it published. It was accepted for publishing just three months after she passed away in December of 2021

Reviews

<p><span style="color:rgb(15,17,17);font-family:'Amazon Ember', Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;">Victoria Clarke's unique voice puts you in the room of this lively Regency romance. The lovely and level-headed Miss Lucilla Iverson is a shock to the polite world—a young female with a head on her shoulders. And which of her many suiters will win her heart? This compelling read had me turning the pages. By the time I reached the Epilogue, I realized I had a smile on my face. There were many unexpected little twists, especially in the last few pages. I highly recommend.</span><br style="color:rgb(15,17,17);font-family:'Amazon Ember', Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;" /><font color="#0f1111" face="Amazon Ember, Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:14px;">- Annalisa Russo</span></font></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="color:rgb(15,17,17);font-family:'Amazon Ember', Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;">I’m hoping this is just the beginning of a series. It would be wonderful to see what happens to Edward and the Duke.</span></p> <p><span style="color:rgb(15,17,17);font-family:'Amazon Ember', Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;">- S Gutoro</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="color:rgb(15,17,17);font-family:'Amazon Ember', Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;">Enjoyable read!
