As an avid lover of books from a very young age, it was a natural transition to go from reading about fantastical places to writing about them. From shape shifters to aliens to magic-wielding youngsters, I always have a story to tell.
This week I finally got access to the complete album from the very talented Lena Matienko. The new album Mosaic is a compilation of gorgeous instrumentals, which are perfect for writing to.

I’m currently hard at work finishing up the final touches on the second book of The Ninth Circle trilogy, Strength. In honour of the upcoming release, I thought it was high time I posted some more art. So here’s … More Three of a Kind
I’m so excited to announce that the paperback edition of The Ninth Circle – Fire is now available for purchase on Amazon! This book has been in progress for several years now, and I’m so pleased to see it finally in print. Paranormal fantasy has always intrigued me, and pairing one of my classical favourites (Dante’s … More The Ninth Circle is Now Available
