• 4 Policemen, 2 Ambulance officers, flashing lights…and a tearful husband.

  I’m struggling, guys. I’m really struggling. I don’t feel anything apart from grief, loss, rage, confusion and a profound hurt that has sunk into the marrow of my bones and physically makes my body ache. Alun won’t believe me and if I talked to a friend about how I’m feeling, I’m so scared I’ll burden…

• Square 1. Again.

  I’ve re-drafted my Memoir and feel really confident that it’s a beast right now. Yass! I’m anxious to have an Editor read it, but it was ready…so this evening I’ve sent my Memoir to my new book Coach/Editor to look over. Squeeeeeee! I’m hoping Annie likes it and hope the feedback won’t hurt. Fingers crossed…

• The question

  I fell in love with Matthew Jenkins at a Speedway in Gove. We lived in a small, paradise-like sea-side town in the tip of the Northern Territory. There were only 1000 residents, so we grew up never knowing what a lock was. Our car doors and house doors were always open/unlocked. Nothing ever went missing…

• Conversations with Dad

  

  I don’t remember meeting my Dad, you know. He came into my world when I was 3 years old. Suddenly in our tiny, dirty, shabby Filipino village was a tall white man with a twinkle in his eye and a friendly grin. I don’t remember how we got to be Dad and Daughter…we just were…and…

• I miss him

  I was walking through the city on my way home yesterday and there it was – a worn, dusty brown baseball cap on a table in Forest Chase. I looked around, in case someone had just gotten up and I could call out and tell them they’d left their hat behind…but noone was around. I…

• Losing a friend

  I’m a lover not a fighter so I don’t like conflict. But the weekend brought conflict to me and I dealt with it the best I could.It started with Jack tagging me on a post about getting a million dollars if the person you tag is someone who’s always late. Haha. Very funny. So at…
