Biography
Born 8 March 1984, in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa and still there, I enjoy baking, writing, music, art and animals.
I own, or rather am owned by, 4 cats, 2 dogs, 1 budgie, 1 tarantula and a plethora of mice who take up a large majority of my time. They say pet owners live longer, perhaps it just feels that way.
I play guitar and keyboard although not very well. I have played and sung on stage, at local concerts and in church.
I live with my mother and my brother and together we bake novelty cakes such as birthday cakes and wedding cakes incorporating two of my favourite things; art and sweets.
I have been writing from the moment I could hold a pen and it has always been a dream to turn a hobby into a career. My first poem at the age of 6 was entitled "There once was a man called Fred." It was well received at a school talent show, however my public speaking has much to be desired. Since then my passion for writing has flourished and I have written much although published very little. This will change.
