About this ebook

It is the 1970's when Rachel takes a gap-year from university. As today, the world is reaching towards global peace but Rachel finds her own demons in Australia. Stranded at the monsoon end of the continent she tries to study, but her life soon becomes like a nightmare. Trapped, she dreams of escape.
She learns how the ancient Aborigines lived a wise walking dream, living in harmony with nature and the Earth. But old scores are waiting to be settled and it could be Rachel who has to pay.
Will she wake up in time to remember who she really is and why she has been led to this strange new world?
Join the enigmatic tale of love, birth, murder and how a whole culture was betrayed. How for one woman, the recognition of her inherent connection brought freedom.
Dare to believe in miracles.
The time to live The Dream is here.

To sit down and write a book is not always down to cold choice but rather a compulsion or urge that generates from within. Sometimes on a soul level, one is required to follow this need to get an idea onto paper. So it was for my story.At ten I was sent to a school which had a bookcase in the classroom. The first book I picked out was an abridged edition of Great Expectations by Charles Dickens. The words flew out from the page as I read the first chapter in a blur of fear and excitement. After this I read the abridged version of Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte. The suspense was overwhelming! Sucked into the pages I only had to look up to know I was in the safety of the classroom. I was hooked! And I knew then I wanted to write.During my teenage years I scored my best marks in English, but I found study difficult. It was supposed I had Dyslexia but this was never diagnosed, so I continued to struggle with my studies. I trained to become a nurse and worked for the NHS for 7 years. In my late 20’s I moved to Australia but returned to England 4 years later. A further 6 years after that I was able to work part-time. This created space I could use for writing, but I wanted to write a novel. I was out of practice, slow and awkward. I didn’t have a plot, but knew I wanted to write about Australia. I attended a writers group for a few terms which helped my low confidence. And bit by bit I let the story evolve. It came from within, took many years and needed countless changes, but I loved every minute of its creation. That story is Dream Time.
