Lesley Pearse is celebrating 25 years as a bestselling author. In her case, that means 26 novels, and more than 10m books sold. She is 73 - her first novel was published when she was 48 - and looks great, not just for her age but for any age: strong, vibrant, glamorous.
"My editor says I've got a portrait up in the attic," she says with a laugh over tea in the Clarence Hotel, then adds "I'm very happy now."
