Christmas Day

The aftermath of Christmas in Melbourne is like the lull before the storm as we batten down the hatches, waiting for the 40 degree heat to strike. Our family will visit and nibble the remains of the Christmas ham. I put aside a dessert and there are plenty of Christmas berries left.

Yesterday, everyone gathered. It was a wonderful opportunity to catch up with family at my brother’s home. Thank you to all of those who visited my website.  The website is a wonderful opportunity to share my experiences as a Melbourne writer and teacher. I hope to continue my journey into bad art next year and hopefully at some point will cross over into good art. Let’s hope so! In the meantime, the most important aspect is finalising my beautiful fantasy children’s novels, which hopefully will be launched in the new year.
