 I am thrilled to welcome you to my website where you can find out all about my books for teens and young adults. I do hope you will email me, not just to tell me what you think about the books I have already written, but to let me know just what YOU want to read about – all those issues and dilemmas that make you feel as if you’re the only person in the universe with that kind of problem.

The thing is, we authors don't always brim over with stunning ideas for books - especially when we've written 43 already, as I have!  Sometimes we have a character in our head but don't quite know what to do with him or her - and sometimes we have a theme we'd love to address but can't get going!

That's where readers like you come in - so please, do email me with all your thoughts and ideas.  Right now I have three characters - Freya, Seth and Tasha; they all have secrets and what's more, they've all be deceived in the past and find it hard to trust.  But what shall I do with them?  I wonder.

Every couple of months I will be writing a newsletter to tell you about forthcoming publications, and to keep you up to date with my latest projects. If you have read some of my books and are looking for new titles, check out the bibliography page – and if you zap onto the links page, you’ll find a whole heap of other websites full of fascinating information about other authors who write similar books.
