Official Release 'Outback Fear' and A Competition to Win a Sapphire Pendant set

'Outback Fear' is on the bookshelf waiting for homes just like yours. A little earlier than expected, which was tomorrow. But nevertheless, I'm thrilled to bring you my story of redemption, courage and new found love.

Available from AMAZON  NOW.


To celebrate the release of  'Outback Fear,' I'm running a competition for readers to win a brand new sapphire pendant set, set in sterling silver with sapphires taken from the soil of Grace Creek.

Grace Creek is the fictional property in 'Outback Fear,' although a real property, under another name, it has been changed due to privacy reasons.
Even if you don't wear sterling silver, perhaps your daughter does, your granddaughters, or nieces and don't forget you can wear white gold, yellow gold, sterling silver, even rose gold at the same time.  
 


BLURB

Savannah Harris is determined to raise her three-month-old daughter in the best possible environment, and flees home to Grace Creek, an inheritance from her recently deceased mother.

But even this peaceful property cannot cocoon her from her abusive husband or a stranger who intends to rip her life apart.

In an atmosphere thick with fear, Savannah realises she cannot keep running, she must fight back or risk losing not only her life, but the only family she has left, her precious daughter.
 
 




Check out the competition page for details. Thank you. :)

Suspense in Remote Places. Stories as diverse and unique as the land I live in.

A few people have asked me recently, 'Are you continuing on with your Outback Series?' After some thought, I am not using the title Outback. I have two more completed novels set on the edge of the Outback, and one I'm starting in June, which also is set on the edge of the outback. So while Outback won't be in the title, you can be sure that they are set in remote places, meaning on the edge of the outback and rural Australia, as my tag suggests. 

Do you have a tag, and if so, does it reflect your writing?


Here are some photographs of remote places. After all, remote means, Outback, distant, backwoods.

The Australian outback refers to the land between the Great Dividing Range in the east to the western coast. The theoretical range covers several hundreds of kilometres east of the coast of Western Australia and continues in a sort of jerky horizontal line, excluding much the fertile and green country side of Victoria. It continues north to the tropics, and includes the Gulf of Carpentaria but not the top end of NT.

The centre of our continent is barely habitable. Meaning scattered human life.  A lot of the area is desert and semi arid land, with the northern third where monsoonal rains cause flooding, is still regarded as the outback.
The outback is defined by remoteness rather than rainfall. Characterised by very large cattle or sheep properties usually called stations. The crop regions of New South Wales although still remote from our cites are not regarded as the outback until one travels beyond the main agricultural areas. Aboriginal reserves are scattered throughout the outback, and a wide range of wild life. Emus, kangaroos, snakes, wedge tailed eagles, pademelons, (wallabies) and much more.

Spreading the word.

It's almost here. It seems like I've waited ages, but they say good things come to those who wait. Hmm... no comment. lol... I've been busy editing another novel, and getting the bones of the next story ready to write. Okay, so I admit I've written a bit, and some scenes where they refused to leave my mind until I wrote them down. 
 
It's been glorious weather here in Australia and I wanted to show you where I went swimming this morning. It's a far cry from the creeks and waterholes I used to swim in, and still do from time to time. Have a lovely day or night, and enjoy. :)
