Pause - A collection of bold stories

My story 'The Diagnosis' is one of thirty short stories in a new collection called Pause. With an element of the supernatural in an otherwise serious tale, this is a slice of life about a friend of mine who passed away a few years ago. Dedicated to Dawn Picken, it's not exactly a fantasy read, yet I hope it inspires and uplifts those who read it. Set on Mauao (Mt Maunganui, NZ) it's a tribute to determination, focus and never giving up. Pause is a breathtaking collection of bold stories written by Kiwi women. With an emphasis on taking a moment to breathe, to pause and appreciate life, each story is crafted with care. The collection is available to purchase from Maia Publishing.
