The Myriad Mysteries of Eartha Quicksmith
It's Kip's second term at Quicksmiths College of Strange Energy, and he and the rest of Team Glowflyer seem to be no nearer to unlocking the secrets of The Ark of Ideas set by Renaissance genius Eartha Quicksmith. But when an accident separates the four friends, and plunges Kip and Timmi on a rollercoaster journey through time and space, they must defeat a dangerous enemy and unravel the mysteries of the Myriads if they are ever to get home again.

No mājaslapas.
Born in Bolton, and raised in Harare, I now live in Kent where I beachcomb for interesting combinations of words and run a sanctuary for truculent mowls. Much of my philosophising, pondering and diabolical scheming is done while walking the coastal path that looks out over the English Channel. I have two brilliant teenaged stepsons and a much-loved nephew in primary school.
Three interesting facts about me:
My most-played song is Spanish Flea.
I piloted a plane a year before I first got in the driving seat of a car.
My fondest holiday memory is holding hands with a wild green turtle in the Straits of Hormuz, Oman.
