Sweating Towards the Finish Line
Crow About to Fly
Getting close to 70,000 words with about five chapters to complete for my new book Crow’s Song. It may be a longer read too.
It’s been hard work researching some of the details of the main protagonists, Ava in London, and Piet in Eindhoven, during WWII. I’ve been daring and written the characters in first person during their […]
Third Daughter
I am supporting an Afghani mother and five children trapped in Kabul.
As a contemporary and biographical author, I undertake many hours of research. I see the similarities throughout history of the plight of refugees. This crisis is no different to the mass exodus of people trying to escape the Nazis during WWII.

Let’s look at the average Kiwi’s vaccination […]

Gently massaging your body, I take care not to wake you. Fatigue and pain dog your last days. I want to soak up your suffering like a sea-sponge, eradicating every […]
Radio Rave
Fame at last! A radio interview with presenter Rachel Dore last week.
We discussed a whole range of things around writing and books I’ve written so far. A lively, fun discussion and I was totally unprepared!
She contacted me from MPR radio the day before the time slot. I’m always the bridesmaid, filling in for someone else that couldn’t make it. I […]
