I’m so glad you found my website! I hope you enjoy reading my books as much as I enjoy writing them (I’m particularly partial to Celia Canterberry). While you’re here have a browse and join my newsletter. I look forward to hearing from you.
All my best,

Abandoned at birth, raised by her nan, and shunned by polite society, Celia Canterberry is a force to be reckoned with. Between being on the lookout for a new best friend and trying to force her grade two teacher into early retirement, she has her hands full. But that doesn’t stop her from, to her nan’s chagrin, stirring as many pots as possible. For a wild ride, join Celia as she Frankenstein–walks her way off the page and into your heart.
