Hibernation
It has been a little while since I posted last. It’s winter here in Melbourne, and while it’s not cold enough for snow or anything, it’s still cold enough for me to want to stay inside with a knee blanket. I had a small launch celebration with some friends for the release of Carter and…

Introducing: The Carter & Carter Detective Agency
You heard it here first: I’ve written another branching narrative, in the style of Choose Your Own Adventure novels, and this time it’s a mystery! Louise and Megan Carter own and operate the Carter & Carter Detective Agency. They’re also sisters. Most of the time they work on affairs and insurance claims, but this story…

Bring on 2024!
I don’t believe in New Year’s Resolutions. I’ve seen enough articles about how they don’t work, and I’ve seen how busy the gym is in January compared to other times of year to know resolutions are often abandoned. Instead, I like to write myself a list of goals that I can work towards in the…

It’s been real, 2023.
As is my tradition at the end of the year, I’m writing this post to wrap up and update you all on my progress against the goals I set at the start of the year, you can read about them in my Welcome to 2023 post. Here’s the list of goals: This year has had…

I’ve been busy!
I haven’t posted here for over two months, I feel a little bit bad about that, but in my defence, I’ve been doing things in the real world, so I guess there’s that. Ever since January 2020 my world has been topsy turvy – I was in a car accident and then we had the…

Is this good tired?
This weekend I attended a writers retreat with members of the Melbourne Romance Writers Guild. We were in a house down on the beautiful, cold, rainy, Mornington Peninsula. Nineteen writers all together, inspiring each other and learning from one another. I came home today, and I’m super tired. Partially in the brain-full-of-new-information way, and partially…

We’re halfway there!
Tonight we start the second week of my first ever Melbourne Fringe Festival show and it’s raining again. I know that Spring is supposed to be rainy, and I know that we need the rain, but it still puts me in a kinda flat mood, especially after all the sunshine yesterday. I’ve been still struggling with…

Changes (again)
Sometimes I think I have set myself up and I’ll be able to have a nice stable life for a little while. I think ‘oh good, I can get on with being alive now that everything is set up’. But that doesn’t seem to be how life works, at least not for me. I had a…

Welcome 2016!
So, I went out last night with some beautiful people and had a bloody fabulous time, but now I’m feeling a little bit delicate around the eyeballs*. You might know that I don’t drink alcohol, but it turns out staying up late, jumping up and down, and then sleeping fitfully coz it’s really hot feel…
