#####



I wrote the above in November 2008, after years of having been bombarded with almost non-stop noise at all hours, which led to serious sleep deprivation, crankiness, forgetfulness and frustration. Just looking at the words evokes the feelings I had at the time.

I started writing as a child, and haven’t stopped yet. I first published something nationally when I was still in my teens, and people even started paying me for my writing skills later. Over the years, several books (fiction) have been building up inside me, and are pushing now, wanting to come into the world. The difference between doing something and not doing something is very often just that, so the rest is up to me.

My name is unique so if you want to get in touch with me, you can find me. A good place to start is Smashwords
