ABOUT ME
I wanted to write a fantastical, adventure story because I always loved ‘The Chronicles of Narnia’ and ‘Labyrinth’ growing up and who doesn’t love a good adventure! I have set this story in the vibrant and magical jungle in Costa Rica, where I spent some time a few years ago. I have always been so fascinated by the rainforest - the beautiful colours and adorable animals. I have also given my gorgeous dog, Columbus, a starring role and for a bit of fun I based some of the characters on my good friends.

THE ADVENTURES OF IZZY AND COLUMBUS - NAKAMOMO ISLAND
March 16th 2020
I was working on this book for over three years. It first started out as a side project, but it soon took on a life of it's own which I couldn’t stop thinking about or writing. There are four books in total... three more exciting stories to follow with Izzy and the gang! This thrilling story is aimed at ages 8-12 and also a great one to read to younger kiddos... a bit of escapism for parents too! Wanting it to have an extra, magical feel about it I added sixteen wonderful colour illustrations including a map of ‘Nakamomo Island’ and a secret recipe! The beautiful artwork was created by an incredible artist I came across online called Marta Maszkiewicz. I was so impressed with her talent and was absolutely thrilled when she happily agreed to work on my book.
