About Me
I'm 54 & a mother of a 30 year old now! (two sons aged 29 & 30) I was born in Melbourne Australia & grew up in New Zealand. I returned to Australia and have spent almost all my life here now. I've travelled to New York City though! - and I've been to Europe. My husband & I published a short book in Australia in 2009 - he is my artist (digital graphics).
Type of Writer
Micro & Flash fiction - short stories are my favourite kinds of writing.
Writing Style
Smart, snappy, witty.. emotive.. dark.. funny... and I hope smooth..like dark and creamy chocolate.. (oh, I wish! Lol!!)
Interests
Writing, of course - an enduring love ~ gardening (yes, even the weeding) cooking: things like cupcakes to a good old Irish stew & I've even had some success with home made bread!
Favorite Genres
Biographies; good novels of any genre;
Favorite Books
Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes; The Elegance of the Hedgehog by Muriel Barbery; Just two of my favourite book club books I've read this year (2011)
Favorite Authors
Toooo Many to Mention! Such a shame isn't it.. neary everyone knows the relatively few famous artists and or musicians... but there must be millions of writers.
Favorite Poets
Not really my thing.. I should be ashamed really .. I do have a volume of Sylvia Plath's - given to me by my son.
