Writer of Mystery, Magic & Mayhem

I'm a writer of multiple personalities! I write fiction for young adults, teens and young readers. My stories range from action-adventure in exotic locations to fairy godmothers in training to dystopian and apocalyptic tales of survival and love.
In June, Bloomsbury will publish my first non-fiction book -- The Ultimate Guide to Editing Your Novel: A revolutionary approach to transform your writing. More information for writers can be found in the For Writers section.
I've split my web site into two sections. If you are interested in Chasing Danger or my futuristic novels for teen readers -- Dark Parties and Half Lives, then click the links to the right. If you are looking for my Magic Trix series, please use the links to the left.
And...if you just want to find out more about me and my books -- or book me for an event -- then the links above are for you.

I'm a member of the Children’s Writers and Illustrators for Stories and Literacy. CWISL is a dynamic group of contemporary children’s writers and illustrators who are passionate about promoting a love of books, reading and creative writing. For more than a decade we’ve been working with schools and libraries to spread the word to children through author and illustrator events and creative writing festivals. From small, local roots, we’ve grown so that our reach extends to children throughout London and beyond. Our hugely popular ShoutWest! and ShoutSouth! festivals bring together hundreds of children for a two-day extravaganza of stories.
