(A hint of Twilight, a shake of Narnia and a big splash of Labyrinth... do your homework if you don't get the references!) A story of friendship, love and finding your place in the world that forces you to choose between good and evil. In life we often assume we're the good guys, but if it came to crunch time where would we actually stand? Average girl Tamar Wakes is bored of her life but with a stroke of fate she takes you out of this world to make the discovery of the land called Radiance. Curiosity rages and love is found in the most unexpected of places, but how many people will get lost in her journey to find the answers?

It seems as though Paige has lost everything: her home, her job, the love of her life. Now in her late twenties all she is left with are boxes full of memories and a bitter old mother-in-law. But when life moves them on again from London to Dublin Paige has no choice but to go with the changes and rebuild. She's not expecting a lot from her new life but its ready and waiting for her in the form of an easy going traveller with a lot more secrets than meets the eye...

A New Kind of Normal is the story of my step-dad, how his life changed in a second and by default changed ours too. He became ill one night and everything we knew to be normal about life altered forever. It was suggested by the Doctors that we keep a diary to explain to him later what he had missed. The road we had to walk wasn't pleasant or easy, nor does it have a definite destination but we walked it anyway. I hope to bring hope to others who find themselves identifying with this story...
