Morality is rarely absolute—it shifts under pressure, shaped by circumstance, desire, and consequence. These posts explore the grey areas where right and wrong lose clarity, and decisions reveal the fragile boundaries between principle and impulse.
Neo-noir is gritty, sexy and nasty. You won’t find anything like it anywhere else. It’s one part psycho-thriller, part twisted nightmare. I’m pleased to inform readers that my third neo-noir novel is about to be released – someone is about to get steamy love in the sunshine, while another will be found after a night of […]

Police began searching Tony Brindell’s residence this morning and continued questioning the thirty-eight-year-old counsellor and popular radio identity over allegations that he “acted inappropriately” with a child at his Church. Brindell denies that he inappropriately touched any members of his youth group despite a former student, Tracey Logan, providing police with new information last week.

Come in. Take your time. This isn’t a site you rush through — it’s a place for wandering and wondering. You’ll find stories, essays, and observations that circle around one persistent question: what happens between people when desire fades, twists, or turns into something darker? I write about intimacy and/or the lack of it —

Another victim was found naked in long grass by Meadowbrook TAFE students last night. It comes after a thirty-five-year-old woman was hanged by her own camera’s strap near a bridge last month.

They exist. Woman narcs are real. Ask anyone. Everyone knows at least one special bitch who is as bad (if not worse) as any male narcissist. Ugly. Inside and out. That’s Maxine. There was a particular pleasure felt when writing such a repulsive character into my book. It was absolutely exquisite because I knew her

A photograph ended a prince’s life of privilege — a hand on a young woman’s waist, two smiles, nothing more. Yet the world saw sin in a picture. Was it true, or a myth drowned in public perception? A single image became the weapon everyone wanted to wield. For the former Duke of York, that

They call us liveaboards—ghosts who drift on water. We live in floating homes that rock to the rhythm of tides and secrets. It’s not an address but a temporary haunting. To outsiders, our world glimmers with freedom and sunsets, but the truth hides below the waterline. Glamour is our mask. What lies beneath is darker,

There’s a moment in every writer’s life when they face the impossible: the decision to end the life of a character who cannot defend themselves. The child. The frail. The broken. The innocent.
