About Me

I'm a mother of five adult sons, which makes me very old. I live in rural Victoria, Australia and spend as much time as possible right here at the computer. I studied history and religion while completing my Bachelor of Arts, and went on to do my Honours with a thesis on infanticide in early 20th century Australia. Meanwhile I have been writing novels - fantasy and sci-fi for teens and kids and horror for adults. I've given up on mainstream publishers for now and have my novel on lulu.com and Amazon. I am attempting to write a non-fiction book now, which is about a multiple murder in 1910. A mother killed her three children. I realise that makes me sound a little macabre and I assure you I am quite fond of children myself and had no inclination to do away with any of my own.

My first published book, Inheritance, is available to buy in print on Amazon or as an eBook here .You can also read free excerpts from this and my other novels at my website
