Jane Buckley was born in Derry/ Londonderry, Northern Ireland, in the late 60s and is the author of the Stones Corner series. Like many of her generation, she had to leave to find work elsewhere. At the naïve age of 17, she moved to London, where she lived and worked for over twenty-five years before moving to Nice, France. Along with her husband John (born in Cork, Ireland), they finally returned home in 2017 and lived in Donegal. Since Jane lived predominantly in London throughout the time that is known as "The Troubles", it was apparent then – and still is today – that not all the facts of the events in Ulster – perpetrated on every side by the warring factions – were presented in an accurate and unbiased way. Over recent years, the couple recognised that many of the people they'd been fortunate enough to meet on their travels worldwide didn't understand why or how the conflict in the North of Ireland began and why it continued for three decades. Jane found this particularly frustrating and decided to take it upon herself to inform them and others by writing a historical fiction series based on her childhood experiences and events from this horrific period in Ireland's history. Jane believes we must move on from "The Troubles" as a country while never forgetting how and why they occurred. Recognising the hardship and suffering endured by so many of our friends, family and neighbours, we should continue to embrace the healing and reconciliation process.
