Title 3 - The Two Linties


I am excited and delighted to say that I have been able to locate
Clare Mallory's heir and agree terms with them and so my third title will be Clare Mallory's The Two Linties which will be republished for the first time since its original publication in 1950 in May/June 2012. Having republished two London stories, I've moved to New Zealand to tell the story of an ambitious orphan's first steps as a writer while leading a double life.

Unlike Clare Mallory's more well-known school stories, this is a story of budding journalists competing for their place in the local paper.

A pdf file of Chapter One of The Two Linties is available for download from the website.

  1. Congratulations! Clare Mallory's an author I've come to know and love. I've heard good things about the Two Linties, so pleased you're republishing.

  4. Hi There! This is long after the fact, but I see that the Margin Notes website is no longer functional, and I'm not sure if you are still engaged in this project. I am in the USA, and hoping to track down copies of your edition of 'The Two Linties,' 'Anna-Charlotte,' and 'Tony Against the Prefects.' I can't seem to find them for sale anywhere. Is there any chance you are still in business, and have copies to sell? If not, do you intend to reprint them or, as mentioned above, issue ebooks? Thank you for letting me know!
