Futuredebt
What if you know the person you love today is not the person you will love tomorrow?
How long do you stay when you know it isn’t going to last? This is the decision Kerry has to face when a message broadcast back across time inadvertently reveals that the man she loves today will not be the one she marries in the future.
Meanwhile, at the other end of society, Fi finds herself struggling with a world that seems to be working against her, pushing her into the heart of a revolution plotting to bring the system crashing to its knees.
Futuredebt is a story of free will, self-determination and how small acts of kindness can be a catalyst for change.
Kingdom
An epic eco-fantasy, shared with you one chapter at a time.
The Old Bear is dead and the Threehorn Stag rules in Highwood.
One by one the other bloodwoods of the kingdom have come to receive the mark of the new king and pledge him their loyalty. But there are rumours that the Old Bear lives, that his family is hidden away in the North plotting their return. There are whispers that his ghost stalks the vast wasteland of the frozen forest, longing for vengeance. There are even tales that the old gods are walking again and have crossed the desolation of the Eastern Desert to reclaim the bloodwood trees from those who have abused their power.
It is a dangerous world for the animals of the Kingdom. Few will survive what is coming. Fewer still will be glad they did. But there is hope. Those who know, feel it flowing like sap; giving strength to the weak, nourishing the young until it is their turn to step into the light. And when they do, the dance will begin.
