Shortlisted... again!
My unfinished manuscript Curlew Song has been shortlisted in the Page Turner Awards (mentorship category) 2023. It's a work of contemporary fiction about the healing power of nature.
My unpublished historical novel, Veldt Hunter, was shortlisted for the Wilbur Smith Adventure Writing Prize in 2020.
Veldt Hunter was also on the longlist in the Writing Category of the 2022 Page Turner Awards.
Pen for hire
I was, and still am, a journalist. In a world where everything is now connected I also make forays into PR and Comms (I'm becoming fascinated by making video).
This enthusiasm to gain new skills once took me into the maelstrom that is school-teaching (that really was an adventure!). It was also a diversion from what I really enjoy – writing. Examples of my feature writing can be found here:
