A group of youths drive endlessly round their small town trying to avoid the hoodlums out to get them; a young man returns from university to the family farm where he must finally stand up to his father and they both must face the past; two teenagers spend the weekend in the bush on a farm and must come to grips with the realities of loss and grief; a young man working in telesales tries to reach out to another human being in a dehumanised society; a woman recalls the harshness of her childhood as she steels herself to evict a behind in their rent tenant; a middle-aged woman faces redundancy as she recalls an unfortunate affair that shaped her whole life and she thinks of what might have been; a youth just out of high school contemplates life in the adult world and yearns for a young woman who unfortunately favours the local heavy and his gang; an eager young journalist interviews one of his literary heroes and learns that even the great are only human. Twelve pieces of short fiction showing different aspects of life - on a farm, in small towns and in the city as characters search for meaning and connection.
I have also spent a number of years as a part-time song writer and rock musician and in the early 1990s recorded an album of original music with Kiwi Pacific Records.
I have had short fiction published in literary fiction magazines such as Landfall, Takahe and Bravado. I live close to the coast and enjoy walking in the summer sunshine on the beach.
