Biography

I'm from South Africa, Eastern Cape and spent most of my life youth there. Then in my quest to 'see' the world I moved away from the coast and moved inland to Gauteng, Pretoria as a start of independence.
As far as I could remember I've always enjoyed writing. I enjoy listening to music, writing, hiking and movies.

Anyway I hope you enjoy my short stories that I have collected over the past couple of years and let me know what you think.

Smashwords Interview

What do you read for pleasure?
I am obsessed with paranormal books right now. Once I start a book I just can't put it down!
Where did you grow up, and how did this influence your writing?
I grew up in the rural area in South Africa, Eastern Cape. As with most rural areas around, life around me was usually about farming. I loved reading travelling magazines growing up because I've always had a yearning to see the world. I actually only read my first romantic novel when I started boarding school at grade 8, that's when I was exposed to everything :)
