about me

From now on EDITING is taking up all my spare time! Both 'Wormholes' and 'The Dark Citadel' are going to be published – 'The Dark Citadel' first, in February 2013.

Thanks to everybody who helped get both books into publishable shape.

Watch this space for the sequels...

Savath is a lovely character and the atmosphere of the story is mysterious and intriguing. I like the way you don’t waste time with giving a lot of reasons for the way things ar... view book

Compulsive reading, I'm sorry to say. Why are we so fascinated by violent death? If I need to dispatch someone quick (and in YA you do) I tend to slit the throat.
