Planned Stand-alone Novels or Series:

    Set in the shadowy part of my alternate steampunk Victorian world, The Wizard of St Giles delves into a dark world most never see.
  • Book 2 in The Wizard of St Giles series (title tbc): There are always consequences to every story. In this case, they lead to all the way back to Australia. (Title to be announced)
  • Book 3 in The Wizard of St Giles series (title tbc): Our heroine’s origin story…  and meddling time travellers.
  • The Otherwords Chronicles – fantasy novel series (working title, series of duologies (from the other side) of The Otherworlds). Currently on hold:
    – A Fantasy – with dragons, fairies and gnomes, betrayal and friendship, and a lost girl who needs to find her way.
