I just love writing stories for children and YA’s. My ultimate goal is to sell enough stories that I can throw in the towel on my day job. I enjoy working in finance, don’t get me wrong, but I have two children and simply not enough time to spend with them; so obviously I am well motivated to succeed in my writing career.In addition to publishing several English titles on different sales platforms, I have also branched out into audiobooks.. I feel that branching into the audiobooks market certainly gives my listeners more depth into the stories and will keep their attention for long enough whenever they are presented to them. Available in many different languages all across the world, I like to think that my stories are reaching far and wide.I have partnered with very talented individuals, and hope to branch out even further in the coming years!

Chapter 1 – The New Museum

Harry woke up one morning, feeling very excited indeed, as he was going to a new museum today. He had been to many museums’ before but always got excited whenever he went to a new one. Today he was going to a newly opened museum of ancient artefacts with his Nan where he would learn everything from what people used to eat their breakfast with right up to how they would travel around on a daily basis.

Shortly after Harry had gotten ready for his Nan’s arrival; his mother came into the room to check whether he was ready. Harry was; of course, ready to go as he was very excited about the whole trip. He had his new coat and shoes on ready to go and always loved trips out with his Nan. His mother had told him before not to wear his shoes inside the house due to them being dirty. New shoes weren’t an issue though as they had never been outside and therefore weren’t dirty at all so she didn’t mind him wearing these.

The next thing Harry heard, outside, was the horn of his dad’s car. Harry knew that this was the signal for him to come outside so they could get going. Dad always went to pick Nan up as she was very old and not able to drive by herself. His Nan would always offer to travel to Harry’s house by bus although his dad never allowed it as it was over an hours’ journey for her; rather than the ten minutes it took by car. Harry quickly picked up his rucksack and ran downstairs to see his dad and Nan waiting for him.

When Harry got downstairs, he went straight to the front door and opened it. As he looked outside, he could see his dad in the drivers’ seat, leaning over and giving his Nan her inhaler. Nan had suffered from Asthma for many years now so this wasn’t
