about me

Favourite cartoon character: Mutley: got to love that laugh!
I live in Australia.
Mother, of the two most adorable chublets god ever put on this earth- well most of the time at least.
I don't tend to change my shelf much. But I am happy to support those that want to try and make a run for the desk, if I think they truly deserve the prize.

Am always happy to reciprocate for those who are geuniely interested in giving and getting constructive feedback. So message me if you want to trade reads.
Cheers Jacoba

Cold Grey

Beginning at the end: a fairly twisted tale


A dead princess.

A drunken prince.

A darker forest further away.

Where you'll meet Savath.

A large hearted hero,

picking up the pieces in

this disfunctional fairly tale.

Happily Ever After, a distinct improbability!

I only hope you find some of it useful. I like the title and cover image. Pitches: I like the first l... view book

Hi there, Finally made it to read on from chapter five. Here are my thoughts as I read. Chapter 5 I'd put this in speech marks, it pulled me up and I had to re-read... mocking, "Stratight Sticky want to run... Otherwise, great chapter.
