About

I write stories for those who feel stuck in the mundane—who know, deep down, that magic isn't something that happens to other people. It's something that lives within you, waiting to be awakened.

ABOUT MY WORK

My fantasy novels

aren't about perfect heroes

or instant magical solutions.

They're about real people—particularly those of us navigating life's

complexities after 30—who discover that their greatest magic comes from

embracing all parts of themselves, especially the parts they've been

taught to hide or fear.

In my world, witches are celebrities, magic is both a gift and a challenge, and transformation isn't a destination—it's a journey.

My protagonist isn't a young, fearless chosen one.

She's a middle-aged woman who rejected her magical heritage after profound loss, and is now learning that her greatest power comes from healing, understanding, and reclaiming her own narrative.

BIOGRAPHY

You could call me a reluctant writer. I never planned to be one. Life was happening, and I was busy making sure my basic needs were met. Writing wasn’t on my radar.

Reading, though? Now that was a different story. My dream job? Getting paid to read all day.

After reading Julia Cameron’s The Artist’s Way, journaling became a daily ritual. I had no grand ambitions - wanted something to spark the creativity in me.

And then, in 2016, Abigail’s story started running circles in my head. I ignored it for two weeks and when it wouldn't die, wrote it out in my journal. Eventually, I typed it up and showed it to a friend. Their response? "You have to publish this." And just like that, my writing journey began.

As I was learning the art of storytelling with Abigail's story, AI arrived. While some panicked, I saw an opportunity—my IT background gave me an edge in understanding how writers could use AI to enhance their craft. That led to Writing Fiction with ChatGPT and the launch of AIMagicforAuthors.com.

My hope? That the stories I write bring a little magic into your world—entertaining, inspiring, and elevating you along the way.

Three Favourites of Mine

The power of the water, the sunshine on my face and sand in my toes. Soul rejuvenating.

Small, quick and oh, so cute.

Cheeks full of nuts, seeds berries.

RAINY AFTERNOONS

A rainy afternoon, a good book, a cup of tea and a snugly blanket. Add in a cottage... heaven!

What Can You Expect From My Books?

Characters who feel intensely real

Magic that emerges from personal resilience
