The third book in the Middleton Idlers Series is now available. It follows the fortunes of the Clayton family – with their lives and loves and losses- from 1938 to the declaration of war in 1939 and to the Manchester Christmas Blitz of 1940.
Thanks for visiting the site. My name is John Wheatley and I am a writer based in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, UK. I write fiction - novels and short stories. Most of my work has a strong regional flavour. I have five novels with historical settings on the Isle of Anglesey, North Wales; five set in Middleton, my own home town which is near to Manchester in the NW of England. At the present time, my work centres on Huddersfield and the Yorkshire Coast.
