Author of the 'Tiny Tales' series
Bio
As many authors before have said, she maintains that reading is for everyone, and anyone who says they don't like to read, simply hasn't found a book that speaks to them.
Tiny Tales Volume One, is the first in a new series of tantalising titbits covering a broad spectrum of topics and genres, and as each takes only a minute to read, there truly is something for everyone, no matter how little time there is.
Adamant from her teens that she was going to be a high-flying corporate lawyer, a Bachelors degree in Law was obtained from the University of West of England, Bristol. This was not meant to be however, as she found her creativity choked to within an inch of its life.
Going from a world where words were used like food on a buffet; excessively and unnecessarily, to one where individual words mattered, was certainly a challenge, but a welcome one.
She has a fondness for tea in all its forms, as should any self-respecting creative.
When not trying to cram her thoughts into one paragraph, she loves puzzles, crafting, comedy and coastal walks (as well as a fair amount of alliteration!)
She lives and works out of her adopted home in Sydney, Australia with her husband.

"Thoroughly enjoyable collection of short stories. Brilliant debut book."
Luke L
"This book will take you anywhere and can be taken everywhere. Quick witty stories to read on the train, in the park, waiting for a bus. G. D. Maher has taken every day situations and turned them in to thought provoking deep recounts of life that have twists and tumbles at every turn of the page. Never have so few words contained so much!"
Belinda E
"I struggle to make time for the more relaxing read, this is quite the 'pocket rocket' if you find a few fleeting minutes to delve into a quick story. Each is quirky and unique in itself to keep you wanting to read onto the next one and it turns out I've found preferences in fictional reading...
Plot twists!"
Mark C
"Downloaded on kindle yesterday. Very enjoyable and you can associate yourself with some of the short stories"
Debbie
"Well done! So talented and so unique! Should we be concerned about the stories of killing the spouse!"

It's like nothing I'd read before. Some wickedly funny, some hauntingly sad, some dark, some beautiful. The twists kept me guessing and re-reading and often laughing out loud. It took my breath away.
