Unofficially...
I was fourteen when I left Kansas to live with a family in Brazil where spirits roaming the corridors was part of daily life. Returning to normal life, I graduated cum laude from Columbia University, married and moved to London to be a documentary film maker and journalist. But two divorces, seven countries and six languages later, I knew something wasn’t right. When an eye operation gave me perfect eyesight and a different perspective of the world, I stopped my career, divorced, sold my possessions, and set off to discover what was missing.
For sixteen years, I traveled through countries and cultures, yogis and shamans, breath work and bodywork, happiness and heartbreak as I undertook the arduous journey home—within myself. The Extraordinary Awakening of Annabel Jones Series is the result of this quest.
I love fairytales and I believe in happy endings and that is why I write page turners with a purpose. My books encourage readers to reach within themselves to discover the mystery and magic that is available to us all.
