I have been writing since a teenager and took further creative writing courses some years ago. I have had short stories published in magazines and been placed in competitions at the Winchester Writers Festival and Hampshire Writers' Society. My poetry has been on public display and dramatised at the theatre. I am self-published on Amazon and my books are available in most libraries. I offer creative writing workshops to adults and enjoy bringing 'imagination workshops' to children in schools.

All of Mrax must pay the price for moving the planet off its orbit. Half alien Ky, adapting to life on his father’s world, is given two tasks: The first, to delve into the uncharted history of a previous civilisation and unravel its mysteries. The impossible second is to hunt down a creature that doesn’t exist, that nobody has ever heard of. His best friend Fay’s nightmares warn of impending disaster. She has a nasty feeling that the outcome will depend on Ky. Worse still, when the Ancients decree everyone has to learn to smash rocks, she knows their very survival could depend upon it. In a world of lethal monsters and a chaotic climate, can Ky fly with the squadron and meet those challenges in time to save everyone from the onslaught?

The race is on to save Earth. On planet Mrax to learn about his father’s world, Ky finds a powerful enemy among the Elders, who wants to rid his pristine planet of a ‘worthless half-breed’. As he struggles to fit in, a baby Mrug adopts him and becomes another challenge for Ky. Ky’s friend Fay, a healer who dreams the future, discovers the cause of the quakes wrecking The Rift. As it erupts from the ground, the monster’s vicious hunger overwhelms her. Instinctively she pings it away to Earth, a decision that almost costs her life. Teams, both human and Mraxi, scour the African continent into Europe, striking diamonds ultimately in France. Aided by the very poorest of Paris, Ky and Fay lead the race to save a city and a world from the scourge of the Kronk.
