I first realised I wanted to be a writer aged seven and have been scribbling ever since. After taking Creative Writing as a minor at university, I went on to write and indie publish The Governess, a historical thriller. That was followed by The Revenge of Rose Grubb, Love and Robotics, The Artificial Wife, Diary of a Teenage Lesbian and Book 666. My seventh novel Hello Satan was released in 2021.

I enjoy reading, theatre, history, art and podcasting. I host #NotJustTentacles, an anime podcast.

Please note: All my books contain LGBT+ themes. If you are uncomfortable with such subject matter, I advise you not to read them. They are not erotica either, so anyone anticipating this will be disappointed.

As long as you have a pen and a piece of paper, you'll always keep yourself entertained.

Even if what you've written doesn't seem much good at the time, hold onto it. You never know when it might provide the germ for a story.(less)

Hi Jason,

Interesting question! I'm something of an agnostic, so don't dwell overmuch on spiritual matters, but can understand why other people might feel that way. Then again, who knows where inspiration comes from? (less)

Adversary

You ask why I
Forgive him
When he betrayed
Me so completely -

When he sold
My dreams
My visions
Out of spite
And fear

When he lied
Straight to
My face
Knowing that
I knew

I should have
Watched him
Fall, never
Looked back

Heard the
Rumours
With a shrug,
A sigh -

Exiled.
Damned.
Forgotten -

Save for a
Secret crack in
My heart -

But I am his
Mother, he is
My son

Family is family.
Love is eternity. Read more of this blog post »

“There is no creature more singular or dangerous than the educated woman.”
Rachael Eyre, The Governess

“That was it, the most ordinary of miracles. How, by some strange alchemy, two people can meet and know that no power can keep them apart. It was incredible no matter who it happened to.”
Rachael Eyre, Love and Robotics

“We're like those dolls in music boxes, dancing when he turns the key ... Though what happens when the doll breaks or the clockwork gets stuck?”
Rachael Eyre, The Artificial Wife

“Whatever comes," she said, "cannot alter one thing. If I am a princess in rags and tatters, I can be a princess inside. It would be easy to be a princess if I were dressed in cloth of gold, but it is a great deal more of a triumph to be one all the time when no one knows it.”
Frances Hodgson Burnett, A Little Princess

“I wondered how it could be that two people who had loved could yet have such a misconception of each other and, with a common grief, grow far apart. There must be something in the nature of love between a man and a woman that drove them to torment and suspicion.”
Daphne du Maurier, My Cousin Rachel

“Too much thought is bad for the soul, for art, and for crime. It is also a sign of middle age.”
Patrick Hamilton

“My imagination functions much better when I don't have to speak to people.”
Patricia Highsmith

“God save us from people who mean well.”
Vikram Seth, A Suitable Boy
