about me
Emerging writer with background in journalism and PR in both the US and UK.
Through my writing, I have discovered a preoccupation with life beyond death, not reincarnation, but a strong curiosity about an afterlife. What happens beyond the last heart beat?
While I'm in no hurry to find out what really happens, I do tend to follow some of my characters in one way or another to the great beyond, bringing in a subtle supernatural element.
In The Barrenness, my debut novel, Aunt Mamie speaks from the grave through her diary, which isn’t discovered until the novel’s midpoint (not posted here), but all the same I am told the diary is a lovely surprise, a jewel.
And I think the story leading up to it makes it worth the wait; happy to swap reads.
