I completed my schooling in a private girls college in Malvern, where I later went on to further my studies in art and languages. After completing my University studies I traveled to Italy, where I lived in Rome and studied in Florence. Later traveled to Sicily where I studied and worked as an english teacher. I’ve always had a fascination for fairies and anything enchanted. My daughter was born and thats when all my stories and reading of fairies and the enchanted life of the mystical lives of anything to do with fairies came together. I have been writing stories of fairies for as long as I can remember. It wasnt until my daughter started Rhythmic gymnastics six years ago, that I combined both together and thats how my stories were reborn. The beauty of Rhythmic gymnastics and the enchanted fascination of fairies was put together and that’s where the storyline came about. I hope I can engage and excite those who also have a love for the rhythmic gymnastics and fairies.

During Hurricane Katrina, evacuating New Orleans residents were forced to leave their pets behind. Bobbi the dog was initially chained to keep her safe, but after her owners failed to return, she had to break free. For months, Bobbi wandered the city's ravaged streets--dragging her chain behind her--followed by her feline companion, Bob Cat. After months of hunger and struggle, the Two Bobbies were finally rescued by a construction worker helping to rebuild the city. When he brought them to a shelter, volunteers made an amazing discovery about the devoted friends--Bob Cat was actually blind! He had survived the aftermath of the storm by following the sound Bobbi's chain made as she dragged it along the ground. At the shelter, the two bob-tailed friends refused to be parted, even for a moment. Could rescue workers find the Bobbies' owners? Or could they find a new home that would take them together?
