Thank you for visiting my Amazon author page! I’m a novelist, short fiction writer and corporate attorney hailing from Jamaica, although I also consider Barbados and New Zealand home. I’ve had the privilege of winning the 2020 Wasafiri Queen Mary New Writing Prize, the 2020 Frank Collymore Literary Endowment Award and the 2019 Bocas Lit Fest’s Johnson and Amoy Achong Caribbean Writers Prize. My short stories have been published in: the Arts Etc NIFCA Winning Words Anthologies; Poui: Cave Hill Journal of Creative Writing, The Caribbean Writer, Jamaica Journal, Commonwealth Writers’ Adda Stories, BIM: Arts for the 21st Century, Pree, Jamaica Observer and the Fish Anthology. My story for Pree “Saffy’s Song” was shortlisted in the Rebel Women Lit’s inaugural Caribbean Readers’ Awards 2020. My debut novel is ‘What A Mother’s Love Don’t Teach You.’ I’m represented by literary agent Hellie Ogden of Janklow & Nesbit. I am a voracious reader, drawn to books with strong voice and characterization. As a writer, my aim is to be true to the characters and the stories they tell me.
