Since beginning a comprehensive writing course with The Writers Bureau in 2001, my articles and short stories have been published in a variety of magazines. These include Heritage, Scottish Field, The Lady and People’s Friend. In 2005 a couple of my short stories were included in two quite different anthologies. The first story was in an International Anthology, published in June, while the second appeared in Café Ole � Too Hot To Handle, which was launched in Glasgow during August.

My debut novel, The Trojan Project, an action thriller, was published at the end of May 2008 by Austin & Macauley Publishers Ltd. Now my novel is to be re-published in the USA later this year with a brand new cover. Details of my novel can be found on my website

Quotes by Eileen Thornton  (?)
Quotes are added by the ŷ community and are not verified by ŷ.

“Connie suddenly came up with the suggestion they should start their own dating agency for divorcees only. “Something with a bit of class, and an office in Mayfair,� she'd slurred over her umpteenth glass of wine. After further persuasion, not to mention several more drinks, the others agreed and Divorcees.biz was born.”
Eileen Thornton, Divorcees.Biz: A Contemporary Romance Novel

“The only people who'll be put off by the venue are the kind of people we don't want anyway. Don't forget, this is going to be a high-class agency. The right people will come and I've lined up a photographer to take some pictures during the evening, as well as photograph every person who joins. He should be here any minute now.”
Eileen Thornton, Divorcees.Biz: A Contemporary Romance Novel

“That may be,� said Lucy. “But, I think it's extremely unlikely Her Majesty will be coming to sign up to our dating agency. I understand she's happily married.� She frowned. “I still think we should've shopped around.”
