I had a cheerful and very inquisitive friend who kept asking me questions about my life. He kept saying, "This should be a book" and by the time I'd sent him 42 emails I realised he had a point!

So my recent biography, Elephant Songs, is built upon a foundation of 42 emails. Good number to build a book on. ;) (less)

First Light Saga: Rebranded and revamped

It's official! My books are rebranded on Amazon as a linked series. They have new covers and some new content.

For old fans, do not despair! Nothing good was removed or taken out, and not much has been added. A few continuity issues between book 1 and 2 needed sorting, and otherwise the only difference is a "bit of polish", as in improved proofing and formatting.

The old books covers had to go. No Read more of this blog post »

“Never complete. Never whole.
White skin and an African soul.”
Michelle Frost

“Music can make you feel things that aren’t yours—sadness, or love, or joy. A good song has a magic to it. It pulls you in and the feelings in the music take over and you become the music, you become the song.”
Michelle Frost, Wisdoms of the Light

“teach us
equality through empathy”
Michelle Frost

“Those that know, do not need explanations, and those that do not, would not understand any explanations.”
Michelle Frost, Wisdoms of the Light

“It was early evening twilight when we came around a corner… and there in the road was a red deer stag. He leapt up the bank beside the road and then paused, looking back over his shoulder as we passed. Like a scene in a dream I watched him as he watched me. He was so close… so still and so beautiful. There was an instant of knowing that my heart was as trapped in this beautiful wildness as my eyes were caught in his calm curious gaze. It was a slowly growing realisation that I had fallen in love a third time… with this lovely, cold strange world of water and stone, sharp light and deep shadows.

And I would never be the same again.”
Michelle Frost

“And who is to say the truth can’t be a miracle?”
Michelle Frost, Wisdoms of the Light

“It doesn't seem to make any sense, but then it never does! It's usually only afterwards when the pieces finally fit together, that you're left standing there thinking how obvious it always was.”
Michelle Frost, Wisdoms of the Light

I lent it to a friend - man in his early 60's and he loved it as well....

Keep up the good work..
