Huge thanks to Kidscreen Magazine for documenting the long journey of adapting Holly Smale’s GEEK GIRL novels to the screen. I first fell in love with Holly Smale’s first book many years ago, when we were both debut novelists touring our books up and down the UK. A few years later, Holly trusted me enough […]
What a treat to talk books with my friend Zibby Owens! I first met Zibby at the orientation weekend before we both started Harvard Business School back in 2003. We bonded over our creative leanings (amid a sea of bankers) and since graduating, she has gone on to start an incredibly successful (and award-winning) podcast […]
After years of championing Holly Smale’s incredible novels for the screen, I sold GEEK GIRL to netflix and it has finally come to the platform globally (and to StackTV in Canada) and is now delighting audiences around the world. I couldn’t be happier to see our little show resonate around the world. It’s incredibly validating […]

It’s not every day one creates the future, but ten years ago today, on a muggy August morning, Hachette published my debut novel, METAWARS: FIGHT FOR THE FUTURE, and it eerily predicted much of what’s come since. The book was the culmination of years of research to create a fictional world that I believed might […]
For the past few weeks, I have been shocked and horrified by the events unfolding in Ukraine. I have personal friends and business colleagues in Ukraine, sheltering for the lives and fighting for their very right to exist. At the same time, I’m supposed to be gearing up for the book launch of the second […]
I’m delighted to join the YLG Eastern Author Showcase, joining three other awesome creators on the Scallywag publishing list. I’ll be talking about the inspiration behind the Dino Knights and what’s in store for Henry and the brave Dino Knights in the upcoming sequel, “Invasion”. Hope to see you there!
