about me

Writing is my passion, and I like to fill in pages with very flowery vocab. I enjoy writing, be it anything, though my love lies in fantasy novels and Romance sagas.

I like to create unlikely settings and characters... Either someone too good to be true, or something too evil to exist..! A story a normal person wouldn't usually encounter in real life.

I've uploaded my first completed book here, a fantasy. I've been trying to get it published for about six months now..

It's just a few words short of 80,000 so it shouldn't test your patience too long as you read through it all...!
I wait for your very frank criticism with all my fingers and toes crossed!

favourite books

Wayward Widow, The Count of Monte Cristo, The Time Machine, Wuthering Heights, Pride & Prejudice, Apocalypse Watch, Chronicles of Narnia and more recently the Harry Potter Series, The DaVinci Code, Angels and Demons... And more broadly, basically, any book which I pick up anywhere at all..!!

What would you do, if you one day you land in a new World, with a new Identity, living a new Life..?


Three kids find out one day that they are meant for much more. In the bargain, they lose their parents, their World and even their identities... What they do not know is that the World they have been thrust has granted them responsibilities more than what has been let on...

This is a coming of age-sorts book.. How often is it that a 13 year old about to be tipped over into an adolescent plane finds out that they're adopted. That their parents are going to return them back. And that they were not even from the World they've grown up in to begin with?

I've tried to create a new Universe (21 new Universes actually), a fourth, slanting dimension, which balances the emotions of being lost. Of being 13. And to fulfill the dream almost every child has of being a Superhero..!

You could call this my attempt for people (not only children) to think they belong, that even though you want to be different from everyone else, to bask in the comfort of being the same as everyone else...

There are only about 80,000 words in the whole novel... I do hope you enjoy it!

Hi Jules. I love the idea of a historical romance..! One of my fav books is Pride & Prejudice, in fact, and I've read it so many times, I've almost by-hearted it! The writing is smooth, the POV shifts are beautifully done, giving us an insight of the hero's mind and the heroine's mind in the ... view book

Wow! An amazing, amazing piece of work! A thriller, science fiction novel, full of fantastical moments..! I love the beginning, and the main plot slowly drawn out in the second chapter, where we are given a glimpse of what is happening.. I love the words you've used, the point you've driven home..... view book

Am amazing, amazing read! I can't imagine the amount of thought you've put in here while writing about the vampires, then about the fox and all the other supernatural things! To actually give it eerie-ness while sticking to keeping it real..! I love that you've given each of the POVs a real charact... view book

You've written the story in such a whirlwind! I started reading, thinking I'd just get a couple of chapters for now, but I'm on 21, and I didn't even realize when! It's such an amazing read! You have written in such real people here, real emotions, real problems, real situations... Not something ... view book

A mighty interesting read! I love how you have interwoven the fantasy world with the real world here! When published, kids will go in search of queer places to find a mine with fantasy creatures in it for themselves, I'm sure! Only one critic I have here.. The opening paragraph seems more apt for... view book
