About the Author
I am an obsessive reader and writer. I love young adult fantasy fiction, but can often be found with my nose in all sorts of texts. My first book to be published is The Long Staff. This is the first book in The Staff Wielder Series. The books, set in the Highlands of Scotland, follow a young boy Tom MacKay as he is forced to travel through time and learn to wield a magical staff. The second book in the series The Ancient Exile is due for release in 2012. I also have several other interesting projects boiling away in the pot... Not Scottish, but definitely fantastical! I'll keep you posted... Till then, Keep Wielding!
