Thirty years of living a challenging life in country Australia  gave me the feel for the land and the knowledge I needed to write my country tales.I’m inviting my readers into the country for a spell, into the lives of people you will want to learn more about, characters divergent from anybody you have ever known, in a place of love and beauty in an Ancient Land.  Their stories are as unique as the very essence of their souls. The first of the series is the life story of Emily, who at 8, was the only survivor of a tribal dispute. I wanted the character to eventually recover from the insanity that was imposed upon her; where in the true story, the survivor was a young boy who sank into craziness and never forgave.
