DOWN WITH THE ESTABLISHMENT!!! OK. Wait. Before you start revolting. Those are words that Toffy wrote in his notepad. “Who’s Toffy?” You might ask. Well that’s the main character in my award-winning debut dystopian novel – Toffy’s Divide. When I decided to write Toffy’s story, I had no clue what it would turn into. It […]
Busy times huh? With busy lives, reading as an enjoyable art is on the decline.
