Yet as a complete beginner, and a terrified one at that, in April 2018 Fiona set out to see if she could stand up paddleboard up the west coast of Britain, 800 miles from Land’s End to John O’Groats (LEJOG). Having walked and cycled LEJOG the year before, something inexplicably compelled her to see if she could turn her previous adventures into a length of Britain triathlon and set three new world records. Along the way Fiona was joined by dolphins, paddled 40 miles across the Irish Sea, and battled past whirlpools. This inspiring and gripping account shows that no matter what the odds, if you dare to start before you’re ready, anything is possible. "Fiona’s stand up paddleboard adventure certainly tested her to the limits. Having had a bad experience in water when she was a child, and then to put herself in a situation that pushes on that fear, week after week, is no mean feat. Along the way she lost sight of shore to paddle across the Irish Sea, becoming the first woman to do so. Through all of the challenges she faced, it was her belief in herself and those around her that enabled her to keep moving forwards." - Sean Conway Fiona Quinn is a keynote speaker, endurance adventurer and entrepreneur. Sharing stories with everyone from school children to business executives, she enthusiastically invites you to change your view of what’s possible.

I have to convince her I’m not like them. But if my plan fails, I’ll lose everything. Not Mine To Love She’s stalking me, I swear. Saying hello to her was a mistake. Getting to know her was an even bigger mistake. I should have kept my distance. I shouldn’t be thinking about her in that way. But it’s too late, now she occupies my most private thoughts... First Love Naked. That was the first time I really saw Elle, that I took any notice. I saw her vulnerability and I soon realized she had been bullied. I wanted to protect her right there and then.

I remember the time I dragged her lifeless body out of the water. I remember the feeling of almost losing her… And desperately wanting to never feel that again.

As Sepios’ body sinks into the depths of the ocean, mere seconds from breathing its last breath, he manages to transfer a shred of his divine essence into the pearl of a giant oyster. When he finally comes to, it is to find that ten thousand years have passed. The creator god is but a shadow of his former self. Weak, with no more worshipers to chant his name and fuel his power, he barely has enough strength to see past the shell of his oyster. Worse, the world he now inhabits has turned into hell on earth. Not only has the ecosystem been completely disrupted, with the ocean being ravaged by parasites and monsters, powerful storms and abnormally high temperatures are not making it any easier for gentler life forms to survive. And that’s just what’s happening below the surface. As he sets on a mission to restore the balance, Sepios will have to contend with a cruel sea witch, giant horrors from the depths, as well as Inquisitors—the representatives of the new gods on earth. He will have to find a way to expand his domain and create sea villages… but more importantly still, he will need to bring people to him and gain their devotion. And to do that, Sepios has a plan: to build field zones for adventurers, that he will fill with treasures, so as to test the mettle of these men and reward their bravery. In short, he first needs to become the master of the sea if he is to ever regain control over the land above. But Sepios must beware. Under no circumstance may the usurpers or their Inquisitors learn of his presence, or else he might not be so lucky as to escape death this time around… Tales of a Sea God is a kingdom building, 4x lit series with hints of dungeon core.
