Randomize ME

I’m an artist and writer. I read far too much, draw pictures that tell stories and writes stories about everyday magic.

I live with my musician husband Brendon and dogs Anna and Pippin in a sunny house in Woodstock, Cape Town, South Africa.

The Story Trap is an illustrated contemporary fantasy set in Cape Town, South Africa.

Rebecca never expected to meet a witch, least of all in a second-hand bookshop in Mowbray. Surely she had nothing to fear from an old lady holding a box of children’s books. But on the train home Rebecca collapses and is rushed to hospital, deep in a coma. Rebecca’s sisters, Pippa and Anmarie, are confronted by a frightening mystery: her body might be in the hospital bed, but where was Rebecca?

At the moment, my bag contains:

• Pens for drawing with
• Keys for my writing studio
• Wallet
• Sunblock – South African sun is fierce!
• Tube of brine shrimp eggs? No idea why.
• USB sticks for writing backup
• Mace in case I meet any trolls
• Porcupine quill – a useful object
• One silver earring
• ID
• Extra house keys for when I lock myself out 🙂
• Dog. Her name is Anna. She’s not included.
