Writer and Speaker. Challenging stereotypes around mental health.
Available through all major retailers!
Welcome! I'm Maggie.
My debut memoir is called SPLIT, and it is all about breaking down stigmas and changing the narrative around complex mental health! It launched in May and I'm really enjoying sharing my journey!
Have a look around my website and let me know what you think. I'd love to hear from you!
... and other things ...
My audiobook is out! Have a listen above to hear a snippet of the opening. It was a hard slog, but so worth it! Now it will be available to those community segments that still haven't been able to access it. It's slowly rolling out to all online retailers!
​
Mental Health Awareness Month was a blast, and it was so personally rewarding to talk to people who want to understand and change their understanding of complex mental health challenges.
And now, I'm just about finished with the draft of Fractured Motherhood (just a clean-up and tidy-up before it goes out for a structural edit). I'm still looking to the middle of next year for publication.
2025 is already taking shape, with more to come. Check out my On-Tour page to see where I'll be next!
What is being said about SPLIT ...
A rare and fascinating journey
into the origin and turmoil
of living with Multiple
Personality Disorder.
Michelle Tom, 10,000 Aftershocks
It is at times a harrowing read,
but then if it was not there would be no inspiration, no
'rising above' - the valuable gift that real-life accounts such as this have to offer us.
Dr George Blair-West, Psychiatrist and author, The Girl in The Green Dress
This is a story not only of survival but of self-acceptance, of the triumph to simply live. You will not read another book like it.
Alan Close, Before You Met Me
SPLIT is a compelling read - brave. You have created an accessible and moving story out of the chaos and pain of complex trauma. I appreciate the beautiful structure! From the very beginning you establish trust with the reader - I felt in safe hands - no mean feat for any writer, let alone a story covering the topics you explore.
