“It’s easy, after all, not to be a writer. Most people aren’t writers, and very little harm comes to them.”
JULIAN BARNES, Flaubert’s Parrot
FREE Full Length YA Novel!
I stood in front of my bedroom mirror…wondering what I saw…wondering what kind of life this jacket had had before now.
Ever wanted to be someone else? To re-write your own story? Maddie Finch has.
At fifteen, she would like to be older, and wiser, especially when it comes to the opposite sex. To be more of a risk-taker like her alter-ego, Maizie, the girl who lives in the stories that Maddie secretly writes.
But then one day the story and the writer become forever intertwined and Maddie finds herself thrown into a world she is horribly unprepared for, hurtling towards an ending she is struggling to control.

No Man’s Land
A YA Novel
For fifteen-year-old orphan Tom loss is everywhere. And love is a risk. But then he meets Penny and risks losing everything…
Orphaned two years ago, fifteen-year-old Tom is restless and rootless as he now travels from country to country with his guardians on their charter dive boat. Sailing into another new port, he is surprised to meet up with an old friend and a group of other misfits – all miles from the countries they once thought of as home. They come together in a No Man’s Land that is as transient as anything else in their lives. But can any of it last, especially when there is a cyclone bearing down on them…?
Freedom is one thing. Not belonging anywhere is another. Or maybe they are just different sides of the same coin.
