Book Description
After the great flood destroyed civilization, a newly-wed couple must prove their love, despite every opposition. Ginny gathers seaweed ribbons to mark their union. Raymond tries to settle in his young bride’s underground home, but when her matriarchal society opposes his plans, he and Ginny set out for his original town. Eric follows, hoping to divide the couple and win Ginny for himself. But there is no easy route through wild land populated by different cultures in Corn World, Britland.
3. What drives you to write? Music, an interest in the human mind, is it cathartic for you?
I write because I must. Creating in this way is part of my daily life, as important as breathing.
4. What’s your favorite book in the world? One you couldn’t imagine having lived your life without reading.
I don’t have just one favorite book. I love so many—grew up reading my grandmother’s collection of old science fiction books filled with ideas and endless possibilities.
5. When will you be at the Awethors event on April 12? All day or at a certain time?
I’ll be at Awethors several times during April 12th. I live in England so it will differ from American, Australian and other parts of the world’s time.

Author Bio
Australia formed me. Born in sunny Adelaide, I thrived warm and free. In the nineteen fifties, I learned to make do with what life presented, to fit in with my peers whilst retaining my individuality.
Married young, my circumstances changed from a life of ease in the nineteen eighties. After three children left home, I separated from my misogynistic husband to work as a nanny and left my homeland, completely alone and friendless, for the other side of the world, where I remarried and began to write.
