💌 Hi Reader ♥ It's June already! The weather has turned chilly here at my end of the world, but we've still been getting out and about. Have you been travelling lately, or enjoying the season wherever you are? I've been keeping busy translating some of my books, and I haven't been organised enough to put together a freebie or bargain deal this month. Instead, I thought I'd share a couple of Chapter Ones for anyone who's still on the fence about reading more of my books. Whispers of her...

💌 Hi Reader ♥ I can’t believe we’re already halfway through March! Time seems to be moving so quickly this year.

💌 Hi Reader ♥ It’s been another busy four weeks! I celebrated my birthday with a trip to Cradle Mountain — one of the most beautiful places here in Australia. And as an extra special treat, it snowed … in the middle of Summer! It was perfectly memorable. Valentine’s Day has just passed as well, and I hope each of you had a wonderful day — whether you were spoilt by someone special or took a little time to spoil yourself. And speaking of treats… To celebrate both occasions (belatedly!), I’m...

💌 Happy New Year Reader ♥ I hope 2026 has started beautifully for you and brings everything you wish for, plus a little more. My own year kicked off in with the release of my very first German translation. I’m incredibly excited… and if I’m being honest, a little terrified too. After more than fifteen years of writing stories, some of my family and friends will now discover exactly what kind of stories I’ve been creating all this time. It feels equal parts thrilling and nerve-wracking. After...

Hi Reader ♥ I’m sorry there was no newsletter in September, but we spent most of the month travelling. We stayed in Sydney a couple of days and then headed over to New Zealand — yes, my favourite holiday destination. As always, we had an amazing time driving around in our motorhome, soaking in the scenery and enjoying the Kiwi hospitality. And, as usual, I couldn’t help myself … I started yet another story! Here’s a little taste of the beginning:The clouds rolled low over the mountains,...
