Seven Sisters Book Launch

My Christmas project "Seven Dresses for Seven Sisters" is now complete.


I am a great fan of hand-me downs, and as a youngest child I was always the one to receive the well-worn, much loved dresses.  I loved the sense history that each dress had, some were from my cousins and I had watched them wear them to their formals and birthday parties.  We have a tradition in our family of having a different colour theme for each Christmas, so this story was inspired both by the colours of Christmas and all the hand- me downs I had received.


The cover image is of a beautiful dresses that Louise Romanis created (photographed by Jennifer Martin, of Jennifer Elizabeth photography.)

This book is now available at Smashwords .

The proceeds from this book will go to local children's charities to help those kids that find Christmas especially tough. So please think of giving this book as a gift this festive season.

"Seven Sisters" gets its debut performance, and comes in Highly Commended!

Following closely on from my nearly sell out debut book "Snakes and Ladders" the Australian University on Friday night performed another of my children's stories "Seven Sisters" in their who wants to be a writer competition. The competition was fierce, but at the gala event I came away with a 'Highly Commended' I was very impressed with the professionalism of the performance by the lovely Merryn.



I am hoping now to find a publisher for this lovely Christmas orientated girls story, so stay tuned for how I fare in the lions den.

Meanwhile, Snakes and Ladders and Bee Bee are still available on line, and you can always request your local library to stock a copy.  If you love the books, drop me a line or review them to have your say.

Here are all the links on how to contact me on-line. Thanks for all your support.
