This poem made the front cover of "Ripples". Pearls have their beginnings in a living creature that is trying to cope with an unnatural irritant. How many poems start with an experience that is unpleasant, grievous or traumatic?
Available for workshops, presentations, mentoring, career development and more.
I‘ve written since I can remember. Worked in a circus, as a librarian, book reviewer, film reviewer, associate lecturer, English Expression, DPP, UQ, editor etc!
Teaching myself to illustrate & to make jewellery.
