Thanks for coming by my website.  I’m an Australian writer, who wishes she lived in Paris, but for now I live in a desert city in Australia. It can get hot around here in summer – really hot (like 45 degrees Celsius = 113 degrees Fahrenheit), which is never pretty.  I love gardening, but by the time winter rolls by, my garden is usually a shriveled mess, which could sometimes be said of me too in that heat. I also love cooking, swimming, martinis, writing.  I should say I love writing first, but sometimes a martini, or a swim in the sea, is more appealing (but not together readers – public health message 101).  I love the idea of traveling the world, but have a phobia about public/plane loos, so that is not on the ‘to do’ list until I can do it by private jet!

I live with my beloved husband, who is meant to be my muse. I tell him that frequently, if he saunters on by in tracksuit pants while watching sport on TV. We also have four unruly, feisty ferrets.

I have three books published so far (hence no private jet, just yet): Chai for Beginners, published by Rupa Publications 2011, and Her Sister’s Wedding, published by Decadent Publishing 2013, and Looking For Wonderland, Endeavour Press 2015. All my books are available on Amazon.

Take a wander through my website. I made it myself! Which may explain a few things… It only took me approximately 3,000 hours. Thanks for dropping by, and if you want to leave me a message, you can contact me with the form below. See you again soon. xx
