This Is Where My Stories Live
Hi, I’m PJ Maybery (otherwise known as Trish). I’m a retired teacher, and website designer, now I get to write down all the stories that have been floating around in my head.
This website is a work in progress – a bit like all of us! Here you will find a combination of finished short stories, novels and more. So grab a cuppa and get comfy.
About Me
I was born in Horsham, Victoria and have lived here all my life. Married with 2 adult children and 2 grandchildren.
After working for many different organisations across Horsham, I went out on my own as a web designer & social media manager – which I still do but purely on a volunteer basis for select local organisations.
While working at various local training organisations, I wrote and published over 30 books to do with the Information Technology, Creative Design and Business Sectors.
Now retired, I get time to write all the stories that have been running around in my head for the last 30 odd years.

Showcasing some of my published works
Beyond the Wire
Set in the final months of WW2, two brothers face very different battles. Klaus longs to return to Paris and the quiet life he dreams of with Suzette. Matthias, sent on a near-suicidal mission, no longer cares if he survives—only whether the Nazi machine can finally be stopped.
Leaving
Leanne finds herself in an impossible situation. Kurt's mood swings and violence are spreading to the kids. She can't leave them, and she can't take them with her
A World Lost
A free yet to be completed story set in the Harry Potter world.
Eileen Prince has it all, a devoted father, recently graduated from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft. Selected to represent Britain in the International Potions Tournament and engaged to Apteryxes Malfoy. She has no idea that her world is about to fall apart.
Meet The Characters of "Leaving"
Leanne promised her best friend, Mel, that she would take care of the kids. But Mel is dead, and Leanne is not sure she will survive if she stays. But she can’t take the kids with her. Kurt’s drinking and violent behaviour escalates, which sees him facing disciplinary action at work, a situation that may leave them all homeless. This is the spark he needs, before the harrowing end.
Leaving is a book about what makes a family, and proves that love can sometimes be stronger than blood.
