Moving to South Australia as a teenager, I grew to love the desert and magnificent wildflowers. Painting has been a lifelong passion. The roses on the front cover of A Suitable Heir came from one of my paintings.
My career as a Social Worker and Behavioural Therapist allowed me the priviledge of helping people with all sorts of problems. Listening, empathy and problem solving were well-honed skills underlined with the principals of social justice, equality and feminism.
Combining my love of history, observations as an artist and my insights into how people tick, led to my writing career. As a fan of Jane Austen and Georgette Heyer, I was inspired to write my novels in the Regency Era. A time of transformation for women in society, high principals and heady romance.
I am a member of the Romance Writers of Australia, Australian Society of Authors, Create/Write critique group and Indie Scriptorium, a Self Publishing Collective
