| At the RNA Awards March 2011 - Me and Penny Jordan |
She was an inspiration. Despite her best selling status she never took any of it for granted...she didn't rest on her many laurels. She worked hard at her writing. She also supported so many budding writers and I was lucky to be one of them. Through those dark hours came many emails of encouragement....she knew those doubts to well herself.
Now that she is gone I can hold tight to memories of handbag shopping in Dubai. Comparing outrageous shoes at RNA awards lunches. She was beautiful, glamorous and a real friend. She will be missed.
Penny may you est in peace...you will be missed.

I met her once at a library talk in Chester. For such a prolific writer she was so modest. The writing world will be poorer without her.

Only recently heard of the loss of Penny. We were colleagues when we worked as Secretaries in Manchester
and can remember how her ambition to write all began. Lovely person in every way. How sad
