Hi, and welcome. There are so many aspects of writing for children that I enjoy—everything from deciding on a plot to progressively developing it into a finished manuscript. My preferred style of writing is fast-paced, humorous stories with lots of unpredictability and suspense—which is exactly how I'd describe my junior fiction series, Captain Chaos.

"Have you ever messed up so badly your parents have grounded you for an entire year. Well, maybe not a year, exactly. It just feels that long. One time I was grounded for six-whole weeks for riding my bike into my mum's brand-new car. Six weeks! Talk about unfair. It was an accident! It's not like I meant to put a massive dent in the car door and smash the side mirror on purpose. That's the last thing I'd want to do. To make matters worse, two days before my grounding was due to end, I accidentally knocked a glass of milk over Dad's laptop. That didn't end well either. In fact, my dad threatened to send me off to some boot-camp for kids, where they make you clean the toilets with some manky looking toothbrush. The problem with my parents is, they've forgotten what it's like to be a kid. It can be pretty tough sometimes, right?"
