USA TODAY BEST SELLING AUTHOR AND SCREENWRITER, Eileen Enwright Hodgetts, is a much traveled writer. Brought up in England and Wales, she has also lived and worked in South Africa and Uganda and now makes her home in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Her life experiences allow her to use exotic backgrounds for her novels and to understand how an adventure can begin with just one small incident. For ten years she directed a humanitarian mission in East Africa and is also involved in a Ugandan Coffee Farm. Much of her writing reveals not only her great fondness for the British Isles, but also her British sense of humor which still sees the funny side of most situations. She writes in a number of genres: HISTORICAL FICTION Her stage play TITANIC TO ALL SHIPS, based on the US senate investigations into the sinking of the TITANIC, won national acclaim. The movie, UNSINKABLE - TITANIC UNTOLD, for which she was a screenwriter, is based on that play. Her research inspired her to write two best selling Novels of the Titanic, THE GIRL ON THE CARPATHIA and THE GIRL IN THE LIFEBOAT. MURDER MYSTERY The first book in her three part post-World War Two Mystery series, AIR RAID, was declared a "Best Book" by Kirkus Reviews. FANTASY In her two book epic fantasy series EXCALIBUR RISING, dragons return to England, a peasant boy inherits the throne of two worlds, and an ancient sorcerer casts his final spell. THRILLER The realistic novel, LEGACY, is based on the author's personal experiences and observations from 36 visits to Uganda over the past 12 years. The story is a drama ripped from today's headlines with an appealing heroine, and a cast of colorful but genuine characters. It is also an eye-opening look at the realities of life and death in modern Africa and the role that the USA plays behind the scenes in African politics. 100% of the royalties from this book go directly to drill clean water wells in Uganda. ROMANCE In addition to writing novels, Eileen Enwright Hodgetts is also an accomplished playwright with a number of national awards to her credit. Her novel, WHIRLPOOL, began life as a stage musical about a free-spirited woman and her desire to go over Niagara Falls in a barrel. The musical played at the Niagara Falls Convention Center in Niagara Falls, New York. In 1993 the Mayor of Niagara Falls, NY, proclaimed the summer of 1993 as Whirlpool Theater Days in honor of the production. When she is not writing novels or movie scripts or staging theater plays, she is exploring the art of cheese making or riding her e-bike.
