​Julia was fifteen when she survived a suicide pact. Her best friend, Rachel did not.

Now aged thirty, haunted by the trauma and guilt of that day, Julia hides within daydreams and lets real life pass her by. Yet even her dreams aren’t the refuge she hopes for. Cat, a surreal composite character. is determined to thwart Julia’s attempts to move on and find happiness.

This dark coming-of-age for adults will resonate with anyone who is still waiting to feel grown-up.

​Yes, that's right - with a new cover, new blurb, and (accidentally and unplanned) 2000 new words, Cat & The Dreamer is available for pre-order!

Currently only available to pre-order on Kindle, I'm hoping other links will go live in due course.

I'm absolutely thrilled Small Forgotten Moments has been awarded Silver in the Wishing Shelf Book Awards 2022.

Congratulations to all the other winners this year, and heartfelt thanks to the judges, comprised of readers who simply love books. The children's books were read and judged by children in eight UK primary and secondary schools, and the adult books by two reading groups, in London and in Stockholm.

Over the next couple of weeks, I'll receive a real medal in the post, but until then, look ⬇️

I'm delighted that Small Forgotten Moments has been listed as a finalist in the Wishing Shelf Book Awards 2022.

The winners will be announced at the beginning of April, so I will have my fingers crossed until then!

Julia was fifteen when she survived a suicide pact. Her best friend, Rachel did not.

Now aged thirty, still traumatised by the memories of that day, Julia retreats into fantastical daydreams. But even there, she’s not free from the crushing guilt of being the one who survived. Her dreams are dominated by Cat – a spiteful combination of old school bullies, a cruel work colleague, and Rachel herself – who will do anything to crush Julia’s spirit. 

When Adam walks into her life, Julia sees his friendship as a chance to break free of the chains which have been holding her back all these years.

But will her guilt consume her before she can?
