★★★ What’s your life motto? ★★★

What’s your life motto? One of my favourite questions to ask in my ‘Speed Dating with an Author’ segment for my YouTube Channel is: What’s your life motto? I always find it interesting hearing the different responses and the guideline people use to drive their life. Often, a lot of them don’t have an answer straight away but when they think on it, there’s an old inspirational post they saw somewhere; words of wisdom from a friend; a song lyric; or ever a scene in a movie- that really stuck with them.

★★★ The Power of Letting Go ★★★

I was so moved by this moment as she freed herself from the chains she’d allowed them to have over her for over a decade, only to realise she wasn’t weakened because of them; but her own inability to deal with the wrong doing and pushing past it which enabled the same powerless feeling over and over again. We’re all strong in our own unique way- I genuinely believe that. And writing this passage, being in her mind and feeling that emotional release was such an empowering moment for myself and it had me thinking, who or what do I let hold power over me?

★★★ How did you and your best friend meet? ★★★

I think we so often look for love in a romantic partner, but I think there is nothing more powerful than the love of a best friend and supportive friendship. She was Canadian. I was Australian. We met living abroad in Scotland. She was a chef. I was an author. We met in a little café by the docks. We were both dreamers focused on our career and artistic goals. It was the birth of the ultimate friendship.

★★★ I TRIED SOMETHING NEW AND IT WAS KIND OF GROSS!★★★

I recently had to remind myself that experiencing new things was a wonderful way to spark imagination and creative muse. I usually experience so many different and wonderful things when I travel and for the last year, I’ve gotten into a very strict routine which hasn’t offered much time for exploration. So, I decided to go to my local mountains, Mount Tamborine, hike through the rainforest and check out a ‘Glow Worm’ cave.

THE SHADOW MINDS JOURNAL NEW COVER REVEAL

Blood. Lust. War. All rules are fair in the Underworld and killing is just for fun.

In the year 2986, rebirthed Vivian Lair is a prized Guardian contracted to uphold the treaty between angels and demons in the city of Shabeah.

Shifting into seven demons is one of the perks of the job. Taking orders and being under constant surveillance from Demon Lord, Haymen? Not so much. Involving herself with the Angel of War, Gabe? That was probably a mistake as well.

When a trail of bodies begin appearing at an orphanage on the outskirts of the city, Vivian must use her detective skills and hunt down those who orchestrated the attacks. Her discovery could lead to her own undoing, and, just maybe, the secrets behind the sacred and deadly text of the Shadow Minds Journal.

Will Vivian survive the fame, riches and games—all while appeasing the seven demons she’s contracted to?
