I am an ex-corporate warrior who, like several of the characters in my first book, The Green Lady, had a deeply transformative experience in the forests of South Africa’s Garden Route. You can read all about it on my website. This life-altering experience led to my leaving my city life and corporate job and moving to a remote smallholding, high up in the mountains, on the border of the beautiful indigenous forest. My life partner, fellow author and spiritual healer, Arn Allingham, and I built our off-the-grid home with our own hands. It is my greatest joy to share my love of, and connection with, the forests with others through my writing.

Fear of not being "good enough"; fear that nobody will read my book; fear that I won't be able to find my connection with my own creativity... If I re-connect with my heart and allow my higher self to take centre stage again, I find that the fear subsides. Sometimes writers' block is an indication that it's not quite time yet to write that specific piece and so I go for a walk and allow the ideas to approach me, rather than chase them down.(less)

Asking for What you Want...

Maya Angelou ask small


I think that we often don't get what we want or need in life because we simply fail to ask for it! Possibly because we don't believe we deserve it, or because we feel too shy to ask, or maybe because we don't even think to ask!


So, today, I'm going to give it try.
I'm going to ask for what I want and then see if that works for me.
And what I really, really, REALLY want is for people to review my
