FORETOLD is the exciting conclusion to Vala and Elvar’s story; it would seem that Vala and 
Elvar finally have everything they have ever wanted and are adapting to parenthood with an 
aplomb that belies their youthful age. This time though, they know what awaits - an omniscient 
shadow hanging over them, marring their otherwise idyllic existence. Banding together with 
family and friends, and taking their part in the prophecy, they must fight an old and deadly foe,  who not only threatens to take hold of the fae realm, but to plunge both fae and human 
domains, into a world of Stygian darkness.

Love is the most powerful magic - but is love alone, enough?

Can babes-in-arms safeguard our future? Or will Stygian darkness rain upon us, plunging the 
world into a void of eternal night? 

In the blink of an eye, your world can change irrevocably. Sometimes the purest form of love 
can be shrouded in malice.

When everything we hold dear hangs in the balance, how much would you be willing to sacrifice 
to save the one you love?

A simple touch can alter the course of history for the greater good - or destroy it with a chalice of 
poisonous malevolence?

Director's Biography

I am a Young Adult Fantasy Fiction Novelist, over-brimming with creativity and an appreciation for the arts - performing and visual - in all its weird and wonderful forms!
I have extensive experience in film - both behind - and in front of the camera, having made a number of my own films - first as part of my university degree - but later in the production of my book trailers. I am competent in scriptwriting, art direction, direction, modelling, photography and acting.
I am a big fan of the Fantasy and Paranormal genre; though my books clearly reflect this, they have a strong emphasis on the importance of family and friends, sizzling romance, and adventure.
In addition to my writing, I am an avid reader, amateur photographer, I love travel and history, the natural world, communing with animals and creative cooking.
Ostensibly, I love my career in writing, but would relish the opportunity to fully explore my potential in other creative endeavours and see where it leads...

Missing a little magic in your life? Then check out the Eternal Trilogy - guaranteed to return the fairy-dust sparkle to your eyes!

Director's Statement

I am a YA Fantasy writer, with a background in film and animation (and degree qualified in the
latter). I am currently working on the third installment of my Eternal Trilogy book series, but
believe that they would truly come to life on the screen, due to the strong visual elements,
exciting story arcs, romantic entanglements and the relatable dynamics of the characters'
interpersonal relationships. Eternal is a story of magic, history and legend, but also one of
personal growth, the journey to adulthood, relationships; each character will push their
endurance to the limits to save their world, but also each other. It also has a strong Arthurian
element, as the female protagonist is a descendant of King Arthur and Queen Guinevere - this
has always been - and will remain - a very popular legend and genre, not bound by
demographic-s; it is something that will appeal to all.
I have already filmed three book trailers to give an impression of how they could look
cinematically, as my hope is not just to gain publicity for my books, but ultimately, for an
interested party to buy film or TV rights to the Eternal Trilogy.
The first two books of my Eternal Trilogy have been published on Amazon and various other
outlets. I have scripted and filmed trailers for each book, plus a composite of all three to give an
impression of the entire trilogy. I have had my trailers screened regionally at Cineworld, and
internationally at several prestigious international film festivals, in which I have won a variety of
awards, including Platinum and multiple Gold awards. My proudest accomplishment to date, was the screening of two of my
trailers at the Mann Chinese Theater, Hollywood as part of the Golden State Film Festival
I want to see The Eternal Trilogy on the big screen - and not just as a trailer for my books! Failing that, a TV series deal with Amazon or Netflix would be pretty sweet!
