Bio
I am a conservation biologist, but words and creativity have always been my favourite tools. I like to integrate possibility with fiction in what I write. A spark quickly sets fire to my mind.
Many thanks, and please consider sharing.

Intrepid Trepidation
The polar sun glares like a spark of afterlife. It is disarming, encompassing, and so very cleansing of the stain of humanity. In a place so hostile to life, the barren plain of ice and snow Seb looked over felt like it might extend forever. The horizon gave way to the white of the evening air, and the threshold between was as vague as the feeling now flowing through his skin.

Ashes to Ashes
There weren’t always dragons in the valley. Alas, the mind of man makes its own monsters. Man is more beast than he gives himself credit. Man is good at stories, vicious in meaning, precautionary in moral, tales of shadows and the unseen. Men make walls of all kinds, in brick, stick and word, to barricade their kin, to shelter, ultimately in the shadows themselves. But a whisper of red, an ember, a comforting flame, and from it can burst forth their undoing.

Solar
The sun was staining her skin. It’s warmth was branding her as its own, and she could almost watch the melanin pool beneath white tissue. Down her whole body this tan returned her to someone else. Like a sunflower she followed it across the sky, remembering its embrace. Someone she had known so long ago.
