The Bloodless Boy

At school I wanted to be an artist, thinking I was going to be the next great English painter. I did a BA degree in Fine Art, at Coventry, but moved more into art theory, ideas, and writing. It was during my study for an MA in the History of Ideas, in Newcastle, that I discovered Robert Hooke’s Diary. The research, and the ideas and characters that I came across stayed with me; after years of tinkering these turned into The Bloodless Boy. I’m represented by Sheil Land Associates literary agency. Many thanks are due to Gaia Banks there who spotted the original submission. Thanks are also due to Peach Publishing, who published the Kindle version of The Bloodless Boy. I’m currently busy writing the sequel, provisionally titled The Murder of the Queen’s Dwarf. I’m married and I have three splendid children, and live in the Brecon Beacons. Follow me on Twitter as @robjlloyd. On Facebook, I’m Robert J Lloyd. I would love to hear from you if you’ve read all - or part - of the book. Reviews would be very welcome, too!
