Update June 2023 -  Untitled New Book  - passing a milestone
Nec mortem effugere quisquam nec amorem potest 
- No one is able to flee from death or love

​By the end of the year I'm aiming to have completed Book One of my new trilogy. 

After overconfidently thinking I would be done in early 2023, (incorrectly overconfident, to nobody's surprise) I'm about two-thirds done now and will be all the thirds done by Christmas at the latest.
Update August 2022 (and March 2023) -  FIRETIDE COAST  - Out Now in Paperback too!

It is completed! So I had fun y'all. There's probably the posibility another book in this series story-wise, but that will be a time for different ocean and calmer waters.

Update July 2021  : DEEPWATER KING - BOOK 2 - OUT NOW

August 2019:
 MONSTROUS HEART  my gothic fantasy romance, is now available for advance reader download at Netgalley.co.uk
Fair Warning though: an ARC is usually a second-draft rush job with all the spelling mistakes and danging plots that go nowhere... and will probably get changed twice before it comes out next year! The edition that is less random strings of letters mashed into the keyboard will be available closer to the April release date.
