English Summary/英文概要： When a great earthquake rocks the Pacific Northwest, fiftenn-year-old Rowan Morgan is hiking in a suburban forest. Tremors rip the coast from Oregon to Alaska and turn Rowan’s world upside down. After her father is wounded and taken to the hospital, he orders Rowan and her brother to stay inside his earthquake-proof, survivalist home. While the electrified fences offer some protection, it isn’t long before mobs gather, desperate for some of the food and water rumoured to be held inside. Rowan knows that if the hungry neighbours had any true idea of the riches in her father’s cellar and water tanks, they wouldn’t be so easily turned away. Early one morning, Rowan leaves the compound and sets off in search of her father. She is turned away from the hospital and so goes to check on nearby friends where she finds a local gang has moved in. She escapes from them only to run into a stranger she met in the forest the day before. Why is he following her and what does he want?

我的小说处女作《封锁》，于2014年4月发表在大平原青少年小说上。

Born in Victoria BC, I set out to see the world shortly after my 17th birthday. I lived in four major Canadian cities before returning to Vancouver where I settled down, took my CGA, and decided that I’d found my place on the planet. Then, one cold March day while scuba-diving in Howe Sound, I met and fell in love with a wild colonial boy. After five years of futile resistance I moved to Melbourne, Australia and married him.

While living Down Under, I started writing fiction. Some of my adult short stories have been published in different anthologies in the US and Australia. I have had poetry published in Quills Canadian Poetry magazine.

My debut novel, Lockdown, was released in April 2014 by Great Plains Teen Fiction.
