I dreamt my book went home again,
transformed, reformed, shuddering
like Proteus on the turn, changing shape; - (from Naso off the Shelf by Josephine Balmer)

Stay tuned for the sequel, Off Limit to be released in 2012
When life knocks you flat on your back, and you know you've had enough, try telling that to a dog demanding his walk.
Jay Walker is a fake. He's full when starved and happy when angry. How else is a guy who has a dead beat for a mother and a sister battling cancer supposed to feel? And isn't walking a pet just a chore? Too bad the dog doesn't know that. The dog lives in the now, embraces life to the fullest and gives his whole heart when offering love.
Off Leash is a coming of age story, where a boy experiences the nitty gritty side of life through the eyes of a dog, and discovers that maybe, just maybe, life is really worth it. |

Off Limits -- Indie Release December 2012
Book two in the Nitty Gritty series
Lindsay looks and acts like the perfect fifteen year-old, but she’s hiding a dirty little secret that no amount of fashionista coverings can make better. Telling her mother her step-father is molesting her is not an option. Trying to kill herself again haunts her more than the scars on her wrists, and pretending to be perfect at school might very well drive her over the edge.
Megan knows all about lying. It's been part of her life ever since she realized the only way to escape her poverty-stricken neighborhood was to work hard, keep her mouth shut and wear a mask no one can penetrate. All that changes when Lindsay befriends her.
Can two girls who have little in common discover the value of a real friendship or will the secrets they dare not speak destroy them both? |

Siren’s Lure -- Indie Release Dec 2011
First Test by Renee Pace
Normal – it’s a word that hasn’t been in Gemini’s vocabulary since she drowned and was miraculously resurrected as a Siren. Discovering her true nature as a being who belongs in the sea is a bitter pill to swallow, especially since her drowning set off a chain of underwater events that clearly spell out her true death.
Struggling to keep her sanity, Gemini must mask who she is on land while keeping her growing powers under control and learn more about the surreal deadly beauty of the undersea realm. To top that off she must rescue her kidnapped parents, ignore the taunting good looking boy who morphed from the waves to befriend her, conquer the mystifying evils of grade 10 math all while trying to figure out who and what exactly she is.
Will the oceans get what they want? Or will Gemini prove to everyone that like her namesake there’s two sides to her. |
