Video: Happy Mabel of the Anzacs Day For Me…

Two things happened today that would be quite special. My box of my new novel “Mabel of the Anzacs” arrived! Lots of love went into this novel from everyone: writer (me), editor, beta readers, proofreaders. It takes a village to create a novel.

Watch this video. The photographer Derek Cutting from Firemate Photographic created this video. Derek is a friend who is a phenomenal photographer. He also is the owner of the War Bike (aka Zoe's motorcycle “Mabel”) I did suggest to Derek that he rename his War Bike to Mabel but don't think that will happen! Check out the video, I was chuffed

The Intertwined Souls In between Series are standalone novels of the award-winning Intertwined Souls Series. This novel – in the timeline of the series – sits between Where Shadows Linger (Book 2) and Hidden Truths (Book 3).

When you’re a working woman in 1950, there is more to work than doing a great job. Unwanted advances, no matter how repulsive, are common. This is where Zoe Lambros, a young Arts College graduate, has found work at the prestigious Sydney Art Gallery as a junior art restorer. She has also attracted the unwanted and offensive attention of Sebastian Fletcher, one of Australia’s greatest artists. Zoe is not one to take a backward step, but she finds herself unable to fight back without losing the job she loves. No one is going to believe the young artist’s claims against an Australian icon. Enter Zoe’s lover who has decided to take matters into her own hands and is eager to take on the role of Zoe’s defender.

A masquerade ball offers Eva Haralambos, Zoe’s dark-haired, blue eyed, six-foot tall peaceful and gentle partner, the chance to metamorphosize into a tattooed, leather clad Greaser on her own intimidatory mission.

This Intertwined Souls Series Shorts volume also features a journal entry for the night by Zoe. It’s late evening and Zoe has taken her journal to write about Eva’s efforts to defend her honor. Zoe reflects on the woman that she loves and how Eva transformed into her knight. Eva reveals who she imitated to achieve the intimidating figure she became.
