'Wicked Baby', my novella based on the events of the Profumo Affair, was published in 2004. An extract has been showcased on the official website of Whitbread-nominated author Laura Hird.

'The Mmm Girl', my novel about the life of Marilyn Monroe, is winner of the UKA Press Opening Pages Competition, and is now available to buy. An excerpt is featured in the 'Voices From The Web Anthology 2006'.

I write occasional articles for websites including Immortal Marilyn and Madonna Connexion, as well as my own blog.
