2024 was undoubtedly the best year I have had. Two new worlds came into being whilst two existing worlds matured and of course my first book ,Life Downside Up finally came out on the 24th of May, marking the start of my journey as an Author. The year was not without loss though, as after continual attempts to integrate Evelyn into the storyline of Islands it became clear that while Fae had moved on and evolved as a character, Evelyn never truly has. So the hard decision had to be made to retire Evelyn, of course she will remain in promotional and when I feel the urge to visit the forest again. 2025 however will be slightly different as I have decided to focus on writing two of my four stories. Islands, the sequel to Life Downside Up, a story about Savena and Fae as they learn to become mother and adopted daughter. A Savage Garden, a micro scale dark forest fantasy about Isla as Hans tried to guide her on a voyage of self discovery to learn who she truly is at heart. Scorpio and Ayiana will still be worked on, just still have so much to make for both that for now they will have to wait to be fully told. I hope to see you in 2025 wherever our paths might cross.
