My Writing
I never expected to be a writer … and I never thought I’d work as a tarot reader or with the Angels either! But both have happened.

I began learning the art of writing when I wrote tertiary-level training manuals, but I wanted to do more …

I wanted to explore my creativity and spirituality in writing and so I decided to write about what mattered to me … but at heart I’m still a child who loves storytelling in all its forms, which is why you will find I write novels, short stories, podcast stories and recipes.

I believe our spirits are nourished by stories as much as food, and often these things are entwined.

My writing comes from my soul, and she yearns to share her imagination, ideas and passions with you.

Terry Ironwood

I read Lord of the Rings as a child. The wonder and escape were like nothing I had ever experienced. I developed a voracious appetite for fantasy and owe many thanks to the influence of the late Terry Goodkind, Terry Brooks, Raymond E. Feist, Tad Williams, J.K. Rowling, Robert Jordan, and David Eddings, to name a few. Fantasy can provide us with simple entertainment and escapism, but it goes deeper than that. It provides different perspectives, explores themes such as the power of friendship, love, and honour, evokes a sense of wonder, lets us partake in adventures we can only dream about, and teaches us valuable truths to apply in our own lives. More importantly, it allows us to imagine. Albert Einstein said, “Imagination is more important
