Overview: I’ve been fortunate enough to have made my living by writing and I’ve enjoyed a long and harmonious relationship with my publisher, Simon&Schuster. But in recent months I can only stand in awe of the growing and robust numbers of Indie authors whom I admire so much and who have revolutionized the publishing industry. There is fire in the belly of this movement, giving a whole new aspect to the accepted norms in the publishing world. I’m mind-blown at the variety of genres born of digital technology and I’ve made many friends in the Indie world. On-line life for me has become rich and diverse with tales of Indie adventures and successes that are simply staggering. This is mouth-watering stuff and I feel privileged to be here on Goodreads. If you want to know more about my East End novels, with their tough, rough, but warm-hearted Cockney characters,

Christmas Child 1
It’s Christmas 1880 in London’s East End and amidst the squalor of the slums a dying Irish girl leaves her new born baby in the care of the Sisters of Clemency. The nuns raise little Ettie O’Reilly as their own and provide her with the home she might never have had. But the lives of the nuns and orphans are soon crushed by an unexpected and wicked turn of events. Ettie is at her lowest ebb when she is betrayed by the boy who has promised his undying love and loyalty. Alone and abandoned, she is faced with the revelation of a heart-wrenching secret.
Christmas to Come 2
Fatalities mount daily from the bombings. FamilIes are torn apart and evacuation seems the only answer for the capital’s besieged East End. Those who remain behind are the most vulnerable to the Luftwaffe’s nightly assaults. Amongst these are street kids Bella Doyle and her younger brother, Terry. Forced to scavenge for food on the bombed sites, surviving on what they can find in the debris. The fear of returning to the abuse they receive in the derelict cottage they once called home, is as nightmarishly real as the devastation of the high explosive bombs that have already destroyed one third of London.
Bella knows that if they take shelter in the cottage, Terry’s life is at risk. She would give her own to save him from the attention of their drunkard mother’s boyfriend, but either way, it’s the German metal rain that will devour them or Jack Router’s brutal abuse.
There is only one way out as far as Bella is concerned; help from the young gangster Micky Bryant, who befriends street kids to work for his black market enterprise. Micky, at least, can offer an alternative to their miserable existence. But what price will Bella have to pay for their safety in these most uncertain and treacherous of times?
