Author has written 20 stories for Drive, 2011, Roman Holiday, Hour, 2011, Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries, X-overs, Justified, Downton Abbey, Alienist, and Peaky Blinders.

Writers aren't people exactly. Or, if they're any good, they're a whole lot of people trying so hard to be one person. It's like actors, who try so pathetically not to look in mirrors. Who lean backward trying—only to see their faces in the reflecting chandeliers.

F. SCOTT FITZGERALD, The Last Tycoon


Someone whose pen name is half a word that conjures up images of tea and postcard-like pictures of snow-y places and half an homage to both Scott and Ella but who doesn't claim to share their genius.

I only post my fanfic on very specific locations and do not give permission for my work to be posted, published, or/and archived anywhere else than these places, particularly for-profit sites.

How Beautiful and Free reviews
After returning her father to London, Miss Fisher meets some friends on the Côte d'Azur. But what was supposed to be a relaxing time turns into a murder investigation and, as if that wasn't enough, there's also much to think about regarding Australia. Like Jack, for instance.

In the Face of The Father and The Son reviews
Sixteen-year-old George Crawley is regularly told about how much he looks like his father, but this isn't as comforting as people might assume. He never got to meet him and he considers that someone else fills this role in his life. But is this fair to Matthew's memory? Includes some major spoilers if you haven't seen S6 at all and some minor spoilers for S6's finale.
