Growing up in The Bahamas provided me with lots of inspiration. My childhood was flourished with tales of The lost City of Atlantis, mermaids, pirates and the like. I spent my summer vacations not traipsing about the beaches with kids my age, but at home, slipping in and out of my imagination. And when I wasn’t doing that I’d been absorbed in some Piers Anthony fantasy or snatching books from my mother’s bookshelf (perhaps literature I shouldn’t have been reading at that age). The days would lapse by in a blur of dragons, elves, orcs, winged-sandals, romance and migraine headaches (which I got from lack of sleep).

As I got older my desire to bring my fantasies to life became fervent. I started writing my first book at the age of thirteen. A historical romance centered around the travels of Christopher Columbus in 1492.

In 2008 while in college, I took a position at a local magazine, where I covered topics on life-and-health issues. I quickly realized that it wasn’t right for me. My heart and mind were elsewhere. I wanted to create the magic and mystery of my own worlds rather than elaborating on mundane topics. And thus, my journey into novel writing began.

And when I am not writing novels I enjoy traveling, collecting antiques and pursuing my dream of becoming a screenwriter - something that is coming to reality even as we speak.

Remember to always follow your heart! It will never lead you wrong!
