Hi and welcome to my website. I'm a writer of historical fiction and historical romances. My favorite time
period is medieval, but Roman history and ancient Egypt also interest me.
I have several writing projects at various stages. Bound by Blood (formerly entitled Love,
Remember Me) is a historical romance set in 11th century Normandy and England. Renegade is
a mainstream historical set in the 16th century, about a Dutch privateer turned Barbary pirate, which I have begun.
I continue to research and write for the project. Rule of Love is a mainstream historical
set in 5th century India, exploring the origins of the Kama Sutra's author - it's been great fun to research and even
more to write. The Burning Candle is a mainstream historical set in the 11th century.
The enigmatic Isabel de Vermandois is the heroine; she was the wife and mistress of two English earls and is a fun
character to research and write about. I began submitting Renegade, Rule of Love and The
Burning Candle to critique groups in the summer 2008.
Paradise is a mainstream historical set in 17th century Barbados, which I have put on hold
for further research until 2009. Sultana -The Legacy is a historical fiction novel, set
in 13th century Moorish Spain, I completed the duology in autumn 2007.
