The Bridegroom and I
Throughout the Bible, God uses the sacred bond between a bridegroom and his bride to illustrate the depths of His love for His people. Jesus speaks of this even more intimately in the Gospels, urging His followers to be ready for His return and the great wedding feast to come. In the Book of Revelation, believers are likened to the Bride of Christ, called into a divine relationship with Him.
In this book, Helen explores this profound connection through poetry, inviting readers to experience the beauty and intimacy of…

I Swear by Azania
I Swear by Azania is set in post-apartheid South Africa. The story follows Azania, a girl with Pseudoachondroplasia who was born to an Aboriginal Australian father, and a white South African Afrikaner mother. After Azania’s mother commits suicide, she is sent to live with her racist aunt, where Azania is subjected to a life of abuse, neglect and misery. The story takes a deeper look into how racism and discrimination direly affected the lives of characters such as Dingane and Elise from the time of when Apartheid in South Africa was at its peak, to the present post-Apartheid. We see that even though Apartheid was repealed in 1991 (leading to the democratic elections of 1994), the cruel, racist and discriminative legacy of Apartheid still continues to live on.

The Mind's Eye
These three stories are designed to be read aloud to a young child. Unusually, they are not illustrated but aim to prompt the child’s own “mind’s eye”, encouraging the development of visual images which can be neglected in our screen-dominated times. The overall length of each story allows the child to follow and retain simple plot and character developments over time, while shorter chapters create a satisfying whole for one reading session. The author’s experience shows that young children can enjoy and be stimulated by quite demanding vocabulary and sentence structure. Each story combines everyday family life with exciting encounters with magical beings.

Mad Hatter MD
‘Have you ever been told your illness is all in your head, your pain threshold is unusually low or if you’ve been dismissed by or undermined by a medic, read this.
Dr Anita is an expert, she sees the system through both sets of eyes and trust me, she’s taking no prisoners. Not with the system and how and where it fails, but also with her brutal honesty around her own illness, her desperation for an accurate diagnosis, the cause, and a cure.’
Maz FarrellyThis book is a cautionary tale of a ‘Lady Doctor’ who found herself stuck in a fairy tale of pain, disenchantment, and abandonment.
Forced to dive down the ‘rabbit hole’ of modern-day medicine, over a three-year period, she encountered obstacles and characters, who consistently challenged, and disregard her.
Out of desperation, and afraid of insanity, she explored mythology, medicine, naturopathy, toxins, pain, and trauma, to better understand her illness...
Was she, crazy like Alice?
Fading away, like the Cheshire Cat?
Or as mad as a Hatter?

Life and Death Is a Full Circle of Unknown
This story takes the reader on a journey of mysteries, exploring how the actions we take over a lifetime and the people whose paths we cross can shape not only our own lives but also those of future generations. It highlights God’s greatest gift – free will – and reminds us that, whether driven by anger, fear, hate, jealousy, or love, we must learn to not take others for granted. At some point, we all need to take responsibility when we cross the line, because when we don’t, and simply accept what will be, the world around us suffers for it.Being alone doesn’t mean you have to stay alone, but if you choose that path, where do you go from there? At the end of the day, every story needs an ending, but that doesn’t mean it can’t start anew. The world keeps turning, and while we may change with it or resist, we must face what life brings if we hope to find our place in it.We are all human, and humans are not perfect. None of us is without sin, but we all have the power to rise to the challenge and strive to be better.
