30 Day Book Challenge – Day 12
What’s this? You expect a literary equivalent of my unique, quirky, yet oh so fascinating life? I’m sorry, but such a thing simply does not exist. There are those who have tried, to no avail, to fit me like a square peg into a round hole, but it just cannot be done. I am an undetermined shape of infinite sides, curves and acute angles.
But all is not lost. Fortunately, there exists a short story and an article that both accurately depict small slices of my life, written by yours truly and published on the Australian Reader website and in Biscuit Magazine’s July 2011 issue. The links for both can be found on my Published Stories page.
Happy Reading.

Not so long ago I used Apple iPhoto to publish a hardcover book of my travel story Belonging, with accompanying photos from the journey, which my brother and I gifted to my parents. Not only did it make my parents very happy, but for a time, I felt like a real writer!

Cool – I’m going to check it out :D.
Awesome! Feel free to let me know what you think…the good and/or the bad!
I read “Belonging.” That is such a neat story, and even cooler that it’s based on your actual journey.
Thanks Angela! I submitted it so long ago now, I’m sure it’s seen some re-edits since, but it is a story that remains close to my heart. Sometimes it really does just seem like a dream I might have had once, but it all happened as described, and after we met the fam we spent the rest of the weekend being stopped in the streets of Amalfi with people introducing themselves to us as our cousins! It truly was a once in a lifetime experience that I will not soon forget. Thanks for reading it :)
