Welcome
to my Website I
love writing about Australia, with all its variations of scene and
climate; its cities, some bustling and
cosmopolitan,
some quiet and
tranquil, all beautiful in their own individual way. I love
writing of the
dry, arid and sometimes inhospitable interior and of the
green Eastern seaboard. And of the incredibly beautiful, sometimes
dangerous, tropical Far North with its rainforests and savannahs, and
the wondrous Great Barrier Reef.
Australia's people are
as diverse as its countryside, they could provide the material for as many stories I could ever hope to write. And
the
wildlife! What can be
compared to the bounding kangaroo, the soft cuddly koala bear
with
its big round ears and black shoe button eyes, or the strange, duck
billed, fur clad platypus that you expect to be ungainly, until you are
lucky enough to spot the elusive
creature swimming gracefully through
the water. My first
novel, 'Inheritance', is a contemporary romance mystery set in
Far North Queensland and is published by Wings
ePress.
My
next
novel, which is now awaiting publication, is an historical novel set in
the 1870's that
moves from London to Sydney and then to Bulahdelah, NSW, in the
countryside
not far
from where I now live. It includes historical detail and dynamic
characters.The
next
book, non fiction, is a weight loss cook book featuring healthy,
low fat recipes that can be prepared and cooked in thirty
minutes or
thereabouts. I
have worked
as a freelance travel writer, writing about Australia, with articles
published in travel
magazines.
