Relatable characters. Emotional journeys. Uplifting narratives.
Welcome to my website. I love writing fiction that explores genuine emotions and personal challenges but also uplifts and inspires, emphasising hope and human connection.
I’m an Aussie-Scot, and have lived in Edinburgh for almost two decades (never lost the accent though). I am inspired by Scotland’s unpredictable weather and beautiful landscapes (like Orkney here - can you spot the seal?).
If you like reading Sally or Libby Page, Amanda Prowse, Coco Mellors, Alison Elspach, or Mike Gayle… or have fond memories of Eleanor Oliphant (who is completely fine), you might just like my stories.
“Your story is poetically, wittily written, with lots of grit but also love”
— Sylvia“Really beautiful eloquent writing. You have such a lovely way with words. I felt the prose flowed naturally without contrived flouncy language which I sometimes find in a first novel.”
— Becks“I love the voice and the personality of the main character. You’ve given us a real insight into her struggles and regrets, along with a dash of humour.
