I’m a writer and poet from Belfast, Northern Ireland. I’m the author of four novels: award-winning ghost fiction book, The Blue Man (2022); The Fairy Lights (psychological literary fiction, 2022); The Buddha’s Bone (psychological literary fiction, 2021) and Gods of Avalon Road (occult fiction, 2019). I have also published five poetry collections: A Model Archaeologist (2022); The Redundancy of Tautology (2021); Chemotherapy for the Soul (2017); Metamorphosis of Woman (2013); Toebirds and Woodlice (2013).
In addition to writing and promoting my own work, I run Bindweed Magazine, a creative writing literary journal, with my writer husband, Joseph Robert. Aside from publishing pursuits, I enjoy spending time with my husband and our lively literary lad, a voracious reader of sea monster books.

Writing influences:
I began writing for publication while working as an English teacher in Japan, a career pathway that has influenced themes in my writing.
My former career as an Archaeologist has also inspired my writing and I have incorporated elements of archaeology and mythology into both my fiction and poetry.

Aside from literary pursuits…
Some of my blog posts focus on health-related topics. Back in 2020, I lost 3 stone/42 lbs/18 kgs by doing the keto diet. I also discuss my sugar addiction and disordered eating in other posts, that may be interesting or informative to some readers who don’t necessarily follow my writing.
