Hi! I'm crystal. A storyteller, content and copywriter. And...YouTuber!
I love to write. I love to travel. So I've combined all my passions. I write quality content for businesses and avid book readers. And, I explore the world whenever I can.

What's keeping me busy?
I launched a YouTube channel! What started as daily readings from my novel Beauty Beneath the Banyan has evolved into interviewing Canadian authors to find out the story behind their book. I love a great book and when you know what inspired an author to write it—even better. Be sure to check out my latest author interviews, fabulous writing tips and subscribe to my channel all about canadian books. When's my next novel coming out? I don't know but my manuscript Tears from the Sea (TFTS) has been longlisted for the 2021 Guernica Prize Winner! (I have not stopped happy dancing.) So PLEASE cross your fingers for me (eyes, hands, legs...anything that will cross). I am SO thankful to Guernica and thrilled to be included with such a distinguished group of writers. |
Tears from the Sea
Iphim was born on the sea. One of the world’s last true nomads, she has only ever known the love of her family and the moods and motions of the Andaman Sea. After the big wave eats her family, Iphim is left to fend for herself. When Snake Eyes, a Thai fisherman finds her, Iphim is swept into the sex trade. She knows the land. She knows the sea. She does not know brothels. But Iphim is a fighter. To survive in her new world, she must learn to find beauty amid the ugly.
