The Winter Witch (Excerpt)
In her small early nineteenth century Welsh town, there is no one quite like Morgana, who has not spoken since she was a young girl. Her silence is a mystery, as well as her magic. Concerned for her safety, her mother is anxious to see her married, and Cai Jenkins, a widower from the far hills, seems the best choice. After her wedding, Morgana is heartbroken at leaving her mother, and wary of this man, whom she does not know, and who will take her away to begin a new life. But she soon falls in love with Cai’s farm and the wild mountains that surround it. Cai works to understand the beautiful, half-tamed creature he has chosen for a bride, and slowly, he begins to win Morgana’s affections. It’s not long, however, before her strangeness begins to be remarked upon in her new village. A dark force is at work there—a person who will stop at nothing to turn the townspeople against Morgana. Forced to defend her home, her man, and herself, Morgana must learn to harness her power, or she will lose everything. I hope you enjoy reading this excerpt from my novel, The Winter Witch!Complete
Isle of the Faeries
There are still some places in this world where magic exists. It clings to the remote parts of the world that Time has left behind and forgotten, where life is simpler and nature is powerful. An example is Teelin, an island off the coast of Ireland, in Teelin you are either a farmer or a fisherman unless you work in Rell the largest town on Teelin. There are few cars and fewer well paved roads, the summers are often cloudy and the winters bitter but there is a wild powerful magic in every leaf and every wave that crashes on the cliffs. It is not the magic of movies with pretty sparks and silly words, it is the raw elements, deep and dark, complex and dangerous. It is addicting, and to the residents of Teelin it is a part of life. Something to watch out for, something to beware of but in the end no different than the wild dog packs that roam the moors, dangerous but avoidable. For it is not humans who wield the magic, it is the Sidhe, the Fey who wander the island, who live in the forests and lurk under the waves.Complete

The Dragon Under The Hill
THE DRAGON UNDER THE HILL is primarily historical fiction with a fantasy twist. As a character driven, poetic, coming of story set in rural Wales in the 1930s it would sit alongside novels like 'How green was my valley' or 'Goodnight Mister Tom' with the fantasy twist more akin to 'Eragon'. I believe it would appeal to anyone who has gone through any of the feelings of change and awkwardness a person goes through leaving childhood behind, anyone who remembers their first crush, those who enjoy historical fiction or strong characters and those who enjoy a fantasy 'what if?' situation. In THE DRAGON UNDER THE HILL, 12 year old Jack is reluctantly sent spend the summer with his grandparents on a rural hill farm in West Wales. His misgivings grow in this strange place and strange people, compounded by a community under threat from an unscrupulous Government representative. Although there exists one point of interest, the mysterious cairn at the top of the hill that, despite being forbidden and the threat of a vicious wild dog, fascinates Jack. When the secret of the ancient cairn is revealed it changes Jack and the characters he meets forever.Complete
