I was a journalist for a long, long time before finally deciding to bite the bullet and do the thing I always wanted to do — write books about boys kissing other boys.

My debut novel, gay rom-com The Paper Boys, was released in February 2024.

I am an avid reader of everything from rom-coms to literary fiction — but I especially love LGBTQ+ fiction. You can see what I've been reading lately on Instagram and Goodreads.

Originally from Australia, I now live in London with my husband and our very smiley corgi.
