Wise, fallible, excessive, hyperbolic, passionate, florid, amusing, touching, overwrought, heart-breaking, metaphorical, affirming. This set of essays (that I believe is still required reading for many medical programs) feels a bit like James Herriot ...more | |

“You're beautiful and sad," I said finally, not looking at him when I did. "Just like your eyes. You're like a song that I heard when I was a little kid but forgot I knew until I heard it again." For a long moment there was only the whirring sound of the tires on the road, and then Sam said softly, "Thank you.”

You already answered this for me on your FB Author chat this evening with Dymocks Books. Thanks for taking the time to answer all our questions!

Are you completely finished with the Lament/Ballad series? I just read them, (I know late bloomer), and thoroughly enjoyed them. I wish there were more books to this series! Looking forward to Scorpio Races! Sad that Mercy Falls series is at a close. I really enjoy your writing! Have a fantastic week! --- Holli

I recently finished Forever, and there are very few words. Your writing is pure poetry in motion. I just loved the story and characters and adored it all to the very end. I will miss this world for sure! Thank you for such an amazing, beautiful tale of love and adventure!

From summer she arrives,
And further goes into their lives
his yellow eyes always inviting
and to her his kiss is enticing
The eyes of the wolves are soft puddles of hue
of greens, browns, yellows, and blues
will the young boy with yellow eyes
ever know when he will say his last goodbyes?
How could love to them be so pitiless?
but in the end, they all clean up the bloody mess
how softly they lock lips and bodies
in conclusion, they've all found their peace
