Step into the wildernest

Welcome to the enchanting world of The Gilly Chronicles, where ancient forests whisper secrets and tiny creatures embark on extraordinary adventures. If you're a quiet dreamer, a lover of gentle fantasy, and a seeker of cosy wonder, you've found your home.

For the quiet dreamers

My stories are crafted for those who feel most at peace beneath old trees, who pause to admire the magic of mushrooms, and who believe that even the smallest roots hold immense power. If you’ve ever yearned to share a campfire story with a hedgehog hedge-wizard or follow glowing roots into forgotten realms, The Gilly Chronicles were written just for you.

Gentle adventures, mythic depth

I write character-driven fantasy nestled within an intricately imagined woodland world. My stories blend gentle adventure with mythic depth, focusing on atmosphere, emotional resonance, and detailed world-building. Each book promises a warm, immersive reading experience, balancing cosy moments with meaningful narrative stakes. The Gilly Chronicles are designed to resonate with readers who appreciate thoughtful storytelling, rich nature-inspired settings, and a sense of timeless, folklore-rooted magic.

More than just a story

The Gilly Chronicles distinguishes itself through a unique blend of gentle fantasy, detailed world-building, and emotionally grounded storytelling. By centring tiny creatures on big journeys, the series champions the idea that significance isn’t tied to size or strength. This reinforces themes of quiet bravery, resilience, and the power of overlooked voices. The series blends pastoral charm with mythic undertones – painterly imagery, warm autumnal palettes, lantern-lit forests, and soft world-magic give the books a signature atmosphere that readers immediately recognise.
