Island, Seychelles with her family at a few months of age, taking
her first steps on the beach. Her brother and sister were sent to

after the death of her father she moved to South Africa with her mother
at sixteen years of age. Although she wrote short stories during her
school years, she only penned her first full-length science fiction
novel when she was twenty-six. Changing to the fantasy genre, she
has since written over twenty novels and five screenplays. She continues
her solitary lifestyle, her hobbies are motorcycling, horse riding
and art, and spending time with her beloved twenty nine year old horse,
Starr. She earns a living in the IT industry, working from home. |
