About

I’m a writer, poet, promoter and inventor… Aha, shall explain that last one in due.  A mother of 4 and twice divorced… 2 down but not yet out!

During this time on Planet Earth, I’ve been a stable girl, a nurse (got letters after my name an’ all), a carer, a child minder, a cleaner, a leafleteer(!), a shop assistant and have co-managed a philatelic business.  Have also read many books.  I can speak with authority on a wide range of subjects, so have ‘been there, done that, got the T-shirt’ etc… Can’t shut the drawer in fact!

But we are not defined by our occupation… Most of us are in the wrong one anyway.  My passion is words; playing endlessly with words.  I talk a lot as well but this way, get to speak to thoosands of ye simultaneously!  Saves my voice a bit too.  To quote a haiku by the famous 17th century poet, Basho:

Deep into autumn

and this caterpillar

still not a butterfly

 

This blog site, folks, is my chrysalis then, but I’m about to emerge so, look out World!  This flutterby’s flutterings are gonna be that tornado!
