I write twisty page-turners set in the far-flung places I’ve lived, as well as funny-sad memoir and short fiction.
My memoir, Xamnesia and story collection, Triumph: CollectedStories are international Amazon bestsellers.
My debut novel is crime fiction 25 years in the making. Polaroid Nights won the inaugural NZSA Laura Solomon Cuba Press Prize and launched November 2021 with The Cuba Press. If you missed the live-streamed book launch, check it outhere. The Ngaio Marsh Awards 2022 include Polaroid Nights on the longlist!
In 2018, I co-founded the First Pages Prize, an international writing award to support emerging un-agented writers based on the first 5 pages of a longer manuscript.
