Turbo's Once Upon A Snowflake - On Sale Now!

As the last autumn leaves drift away and winter whispers gently through the garden, a single snowflake begins to fall… and with it comes a brand-new adventure for our favourite little duck.
Today, I’m so excited to share the arrival of Once Upon A Snowflake, a soft, magical winter story filled with kindness, wonder, and the quiet beauty of the season.
In this gentle tale, Turbo discovers the magic that can hide inside the smallest things — a glimmer of light, a hush of snow, a new friend, or a moment of pure stillness. It’s a story born from love, imagination, and my wish to bring a little warmth to families during the Christmas season.
This book means a lot to me.
It was created during early mornings wrapped in blankets, nights listening to the wind outside, and all the moments in between where inspiration quietly taps on the window.
And now it’s ready to be shared with the world.
I hope it brings your little ones the same sense of wonder it brought me while writing it.
Over the next few days, I’ll be sharing more behind-the-scenes moments, favourite pages, and something very special…
Turbo’s FREE Christmas Activity Pack, arriving at the end of this week! Thank you, as always, for being here and walking this magical path with me.
Once upon a snowflake… our winter journey begins.

Welcome to 'Hysteria Lane'.
Where the gardens are perfectly kept… and the secrets are perfectly buried.
Set in a quiet rural street on the outskirts of Auckland, Hysteria Lane follows a tight-knit community where appearances are everything—and danger is always just beneath the surface.
Each book in the series peels back another layer of this seemingly peaceful neighbourhood, exposing the crimes, betrayals, and buried traumas that threaten to tear the residents apart. From mysterious newcomers and past horrors to explosive acts of violence, every chapter brings a fresh wave of suspense, heartbreak, and twisted humour.
Perfect for fans of Desperate Housewives and psychological thrillers, this darkly addictive series blends cosy domestic life with chilling mystery. In Hysteria Lane, everyone has something to hide—and some secrets refuse to stay buried.
