As an author and paranormalist, I weave words into wider realities. I explore the missing half of self.

I am also a storyhealer and former business journalist who knew at age 12 that I wanted to write a novel. I spent decades researching arcane, paranormal subjects. This ignited a passion for alternative spirituality, leading me to become a Sunan storyhealer. M -
