I’m very excited to welcome Christina Phillips to my blog today. Her new book FORBIDDEN will be released Tuesday, 7th September. FORBIDDEN is an Ancient Historical Romance that’s hotter than hot. I’ve always been a bit of a history nut and the Romans just seem to encapsulate the essence of powerful warriors. Christina’s hero, Maximus, Continue reading

Family
My elderly mum (she’s 88!) is visiting from Brisbane. She was unwell at the start of the year and couldn’t be in Cairns for the launch of Border Watch. I missed having her there as she and Dad were so integral in developing my love of books and writing. Today we had coffee at Glaskins Continue reading
RWA Conference Bound!
My bags are packed, Beyond the Borders first round of edits is complete (I think…), and I’m off to bed for an early start tomorrow. Can’t wait to catch up with everyone in person at the RWA conference in Sydney. It’s always a wonderful motivating weekend where we celebrate Romance, writing and our collective love Continue reading
Anzac Biscuits
I’ve had a few emails asking about my recipe for Anzac Biscuits. In Border Watch, they are Lauren’s favourite treat and she coerces Morgan into cooking them as often as she can. Yesterday we had a visit from a friend whose son is currently doing his second tour of duty in Afghanistan. Harry mentioned that Continue reading
Wonder Woman gets a make-over
The ABC is reporting this morning that Wonder Woman’s had a make-over. She’s been getting around in the same weird blue pants and shape-shifting bustier for 69 years, so she does indeed deserves a little fashion moment of her own. Complete with dark leggings and a sexy leather jacket, she looks more like a vampire-slaying Continue reading

Bikers Descend on Darwin
This should be titled ‘The people you meet on the road’! We went all the way to Darwin to have catch-up sunset drinks with Ray and Owen. They’ve spent the last week, along with 300 other bikers (as opposed to bikies…), riding from Brisbane to Darwin as part of a Ulysses Long Ride, raising funds Continue reading
Next stop Freo, then Darwin and WordStorm!
We cycled from one end of Rotto to the other, visited the Lighthouse, the Gun Battery and most of the lakes. For me it was a trip back to my childhood at Currumbin Beach – packs of kids running amuck with little or no adult supervision required. The smells of sea, cement and fish ‘n Continue reading
