The story so far ...

APRIL 2025

Where does the time go?

You'd think a writer of time travel fantasy would have a better grip on time but no. Here we are in Spring and a quarter of the year has passed. 

I have been busy though. I had a fabulous holiday in the Caribbean to celebrate D's big birthday and had an operation on my eyes last month to correct obscured pupils and it does affect your capacity to write when your eyes are all bruised, puffy and swollen. I'm definitely the mend now though, and writing regularly again. So Another Wey of Life, the latest instalment in Maisie Wharton's adventures in time, will still be available to buy at the end of May, and you can pre-order the ebook now. 

Right now in the UK it feels more like summer so I'm going to down tools for the day, go grab a strawberry daiquiri and pretend I'm on a beach in Antigua again.

Enjoy the journey!

My Books

Step into the Weys of Time — It all starts here...

🔑 A hidden journal.
🔑 A mysterious silver key.
🔑 A family secret waiting to be uncovered.

It starts as an ordinary day at the school library – until Maisie Wharton and her best friends, Jasper and Ani, unearth something that defies logic and time. What they find will send them hurtling decades into the past… 

Destination: 1987.

Maisie is about to crash the ultimate party—her mum’s 18th birthday bash! 

As she navigates a whirlwind of vibrant fashion, iconic music, and eccentric partygoers, it's a race to uncover the truth before time runs out. 

With neon lights, classic tunes, and big hair everywhere, Maisie must solve the mystery of a missing journal and find her way home. But the deeper she digs, the closer she gets to a family secret that will reshape her future forever. And the harder she falls for Rob, the drummer in the band ...

Wey Back When, the first book in the Wey Back in Time series, weaves together time travel, enduring love, and ancient English folklore in a heartwarming, nostalgic adventure. If you’re a fan of Back to the Future or Quantum Leap, this is your next must-read!

What readers are saying about the Wey Back in Time series ...

 ‘If you want a book that keeps you so hooked you forget to do anything you've planned and over an hour can pass without you realising then I seriously recommend you give this series a go.’ *****

'I have read four of the Weys stories and can’t wait for the next one. I am in my 50s and the nostalgia is great. The s
tories are good for any age group as modern teens meet older generations.’ *****

‘Good enough to make me download all five books in the series.’ ****

 

'I am always transported back to Stoneford as soon as I read the first page of a Wey book. It's like visiting a favourite destination.' *****

'This is one of the best series I've read in a long time. Being a hippie for the past 70 years I can relate to all the events in the wey books. The "parties" especially lol. Keep up the good work. Just read No 10, can't wait for the next series.' *****

 

'The author doesn't fall into the trap of the old generational conflict cliches and this, together with the humour/tragedy mix makes this an interesting read. Characters are well-developed and ones to empathise with.
I look forward to checking out the rest of the series.' *****

I don't know how you keep coming up with these S J Blackwell and how you can link everything together but I'm glad you can as this is a great series, for the young at heart as well as the young! *****

'This series just gets better and it's almost impossible to predict some of the twists.' *****

'Couldn't put it down, characters so believable, I felt so nostalgic about 1987, descriptions so accurate, So readable for teenagers and anyone young at heart.’ *****

‘I’ve just finished Wey Back When and it was soooo good! Such a page turner.’ *****

just wanted to say that I've read all the "Wey" series, and absolutely love them!

I have a seriously eclectic taste in books, but time-travel is up there towards the top, especially the adventures of Lizzy, Masie and co - Jef, FB review.

I'm currently on the sixth book and my house is worse than I've ever seen it, but I'm simply not looking at it -all I can do is read! - Claire, FB review.
