Authors Statement

"My role is to blend a delicate distortion into the truth, crafting a flawless getaway into fantasy."


Behind every great story lies a truth, but to what extent that truth is unveiled or maintained depends on the storyteller’s imagination and how much embellishment is built around it. 


In reality, truth is subjective and relies on the audience’s perspective - what they perceive as believable. 


A good storyteller knows how far to stretch a storyline based on a truth before it becomes an unbelievable piece of fiction or a tall tale. That, in essence, is the art of storytelling. 


I present to you, my storylines based on truths. Are they believable, or am I just weaving a magical tall tale? It’s up to you to feel between the lines. 


I hope you enjoy reading my stories as much as I enjoyed writing them. I look forward to your feedback. Keep in touch. There’s more to come.
