My Story

Writing is like breathing.

I need to write or I will drown in the reality closing around me.

I get lost in the worlds that flow like magic from my fingers, and I cannot explain where the words or worlds come from.

I am a discovery writer, which means I discover the story as it unfolds across the pages, as a reader would discover a story as they read. I can’t explain how this works, or why it is the best way for me. It is what it is. And I love that about writing, discovering new characters, being surprised by twists, and learning that what seemed insignificant a few chapters back actually had a reason.

I tried plotting and planning, but the characters had other ideas. I am really just the typist to their story. Over the course of writing many books, I have learnt to trust my process.

Many of my stories contain a sense of finding place or family, and explore relationships both good and bad, platonic and intimate.
