About me

I live in Johannesburg, sometimes, and, mostly, I write wherever I am. I am not published yet, but watch this space. LOL Seriously, watch this space. I'm busy with my third book. The fourth is breathing quietly in the incubator and ... I'm going to be a star. A star, I say.

My work

I have written a Memoir: "It took a litle time". I finished a book about the perception we have of each other in South Africa: The White Heart Diaries.
