I have been married to my wife for thirty years. I have four adult children and one grand child. I live in the picturesque region of the Mornington Peninsula, a full one hour drive from Melbourne Australia. I draw my inspiration for my novels and short stories from the Australian culture, and from my diverse family history.
I have now finished Legendary blue diamond/romance adventure.
The story is set in the Australian outback in the year 1850. Bushrangers rob a woman of her guns and the rare blue diamond ring. She hunts them down to take back what they stole. On her journey Jessica falls in love. His name is Lightening Dawn.

If you were standing alone on a bridge at midnight on new-years-eve and a tall handsome stranger walked up to you and asked for a kiss, how would you react?

  • A CANDLE IN HER HANDS on April 28, 2011
    star star
    Candle in her hands could have and should have been a great story. I believe it has the potential. The start was good. However the grammar and the fact that there were no paragraphs was a problem. Another eg. The girls feet don't gloat across the ground they float. The best thing to do is always read your work out loud to hear how it reads at least twice. Then upload another version. More of a goal is needed to be written for a more fulfilling end. Good luck.
  • Soulmates on April 29, 2011
