The Boy Who Fell to Earth

The Boy Who Fell to Earth https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XXH3R3V/...
has been redeveloped and line-edited. I think I can finally say goodbye (in a way) to the two main characters. It's been hard but so many people have helped me on the way. I need to move on now. I'm writing two other novels in the same universe, and these new characters will surely live in my head for the foreseeable future. Crazy, huh? Perhaps I'm too emotional a writer because the MCs always mess up my head.

Autism Awareness read

To celebrate

World Autism Awareness Week 30 March to 2 April

I am revisiting my lesfic novella Courting Light, currently $1.20 https://www.smashwords.com/books/view...

Our days were numbered but precious.
Courting Light is the story of Josie, an eighteen-year-old about to leave home to start university in London. She volunteers at a summer camp for disabled children. When Josie is paired with the autistic teenager Lucian, she faces intense experiences that are truly eye-opening. To her surprise, Lucian is not the only one who captures her attention. Over the weeks, Josie develops powerful desires evoked by the camp’s enigmatic young leader with a shaved head and tattoo on her skull.

This book captures the unique essence of your first love. ~ The Lesbian Review

Genre: LGBTQ+, YA contemporary, lesbian lit
Keywords: lesbian, coming-of-age, disability, teens, young adult, friendship, romance
