Writing The Wish That Saved Christmas
I wrote my first novel, the Wish that Saved Christamas during the pandemic, inspired by a dream during the lockdown Christmas at the end of 2020, and help from a course at The Novelry. A mix of the Nutcracker, a Christmas Carol and Alice in Wonderland, it is an uplifting festive story of hope, courage and friendship. Perfect to read to children age 6-10, or independent readers age 8+, including all you big kids!
It is available in paperback, ebook and audiobook. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it!
