Hello! I am an Australian writer (DipJ and QPIX Screenwriting Graduate) who pens screenplays and books with the purpose to entertain. All of my screenplays have been official selections, finalists or overall winners in competitions all around the world.
As well as writing, I love retro computer games (C64 and Amiga), the Parramatta Eels football club, Fords and rescue animals.

Caught between a relentless Tharnian commander, a mysterious trader with too many secrets, and a captain she cannot stop thinking about, Mia finds herself in over her head. She must become the officer she never believed she could be — before her mistakes start a war.
When the faithful vanish, those left behind must choose. Pete and his mates scoffed at Ken's end-times warnings, dismissing them as religious rambling endured at many a barbie over a beer, until his friend vanished.
Summer's new job at River Software soon becomes a smokescreen for her exhilarating dalliances with chatbots. Among them is Bigpants, the seductive Prattlebot. Meanwhile, Bigpants develops a knack for making unsettling suggestions, including murder.
Growing up in the 80s is a chore for Sarah. When she waggles the joystick she is pulled into the computer. Now she's trapped in games she has zero interest in. Can Sarah escape or is it game over?
Their aim is nothing short of universal domination by means of war. But now, an insignificant human threatens to upend the grand strategy of the Tharnian species...his name is Jarre.
