About

Writing wizard and editor extraordinaire. There is magic in my pen.

I am a published author, journalist, and poet. I have worked on various women's, HR and Health magazines, as a sub-editor and features writer, and I write fantasy in my spare time. Writing for well over 35 years, I have been part of the fabulous TUW team since 2019 and I freelance for Guru clients. I have written over 40 books of 30 000 words and above in the last year.

I particularly enjoy writing about self-help, psychology/neuroscience, herbalism, and natural/alternative health topics. Parenting, relationships, and workplace/management challenges are my other areas of expertise.

Ghostwriting for me is a way to help authors share their ideas with the world, and in that way make it a better place to live for all. We need more of that. Writing is my lifeblood, and writing for others so they can have a voice is one of my passions. It also helps pay some bills.

I have a degree majoring in Drama, Industrial Psych, and Psychology, as well as a Diploma in Professional Life Coaching, and am a registered assessor, moderator, training materials designer, and commissioner of oaths.

After 23 years in the rat race, as the CEO of a thriving adult education and assessment centre, and in the corporate world, I now spend my days quietly writing and editing for a living. I also homeschool my son and run a life coaching business on the side.

I live on a farm near a shimmering-blue sea, surrounded by trees and mountains. I have 2 amazing sons, a collie called Sir Oliver McFluffypants, several cats, some chickens, and a grapevine called Joe.
