I write romantic suspense and science fiction, including space opera. Across MANGO and The Consent Chronicles, I return to the moment when someone must make a choice without knowing what it will cost. The settings change; my interest in trust, freedom, love, and the right to choose remains.
MANGO is a romantic suspense novel about loss, stolen identities, and dangerous second chances. The Consent Chronicles explores memory, identity, and autonomy across three connected novels: More Than the Past, More Than Power, and More Than Time.
I grew up in Asia and have travelled widely there, listening to people, speaking with Buddhist monks, and learning about cultures, mythology, and everyday lives. Those encounters taught me to look beyond the first explanation of a person or a place. I began writing at school about nature and human rights, later wrote newspaper articles about history and remarkable people, worked in television, and kept writing poetry alongside my prose.
Much of my life is now spent on an island. There is usually music playing while I write: soul, jazz, or something quiet enough to let a scene unfold. I write quickly while I can see it, then spend much longer finding the precise words. Outside writing, I enjoy travelling, drawing, and racing.
My published books are available on Amazon. MANGO is a standalone romantic suspense novel; The Consent Chronicles is a three-book space opera, beginning with More Than the Past, followed by MORE THAN POWER and More Than Time. I am also working on a new novel, which I plan to publish in 2027.
