A Lineage of Writers in the family?

Who Knows?

Yesterday, Marissa's article was published in the Herald. A lawyer by profession, she was adept in the craft of writing from a young age. At four, she used to write poems to me on little pieces of paper, and whenever I got back late from work, I'd know she missed me when I saw a paper on the kitchen table with "For Mummy, written in bold, and at the bottom, "I Love You, From Marissa." Brings back great memories! The bookshelves in the house have overflowed, we have given away boxes of books, and still, she comes back with two new books each month. I don't know where she gets the time to read, given her work schedule. She loves book fairs and the like. This time, she visited a charity home and wrote an article on it. Here's the article and a photo of her with my mum, one Christmas. Someday, I will tell you the story of how I drove all the way up north with both my girls in tow, one aged 5 and the other 3.

Have a good day. Don't forget to read my newest publication, detailed below, The Children of the Sun. You'll love the story.

A captivating journey into the history, culture & the tale of two Inca women.

A Reflective Story:

Title: The Children of the Sun — Writing Through the Echoes of Inca Civilisation

When I began writing The Children of the Sun, I wasn’t just telling a story—I was listening. The Inca Empire, with its mystical connection to nature and the cosmos, took me through ancient rituals, forgotten myths, and the enduring strength of its women.

Set in the Andes, the novel follows Martha and Mary, sisters bound by blood and destiny. Their world is shaped by sacred mountains, grazing llamas, and the quiet power of the Apus, the mountain spirits. But when tragedy strikes, their journey becomes one of transformation—guided by ancestral memory and spiritual resilience.

This book is my tribute to indigenous cultures and the feminine spirit that endures through time. I wanted readers to feel the pulse of a civilisation that still breathes beneath the stones, to see the divine in the everyday, and to remember that stories are how we keep the light alive.

If this resonates with you, I invite you to read The Children of the Sun. I am happy to share that my book has reached No.10 in Amazon's best-sellers for indigenous fantasy ebook.

Thank you, and Happy Reading.
