Fiction

I am currently revising two novels:

Once Home: A forty-four-year-old woman, a sculptor and aspiring poet, wakes up from a nap on the beach to find she is the only person alive on earth. The landscape around her has transformed: the sea level has risen and she is stranded on a newly formed island. Faced with unprecedented aloneness, she must navigate her new reality to survive and find meaning in this wholly altered world. Once Home was a finalist in this year’s, William Faulkner – William Wisdom Creative Writing Competition as a novella. I have since expanded it to novel length.

The Darkest Skies:  The story of two gifted scholars of the natural sciences who are entangled by dark supernatural forces on a wild and mysterious island nation in the North Atlantic. The Darkest Skies was shortlisted in this year’s, William Faulkner – William Wisdom Creative Writing Competition in the novel in progress category.
