Salamada Appreciation Society: A collaborative anthology - Dunalley Primary School SAS - E-book - ePub

Greetings from Tasmania, Australia. I've never lived outside my home state, but in my imagination, I am a world traveller. I've been married for 40+ years to a patient man who has given me the freedom to pursue this dream of being an author. I have two adult sons, who live independently. At the time of writing, two of the River Wild Series have been published, and another two are in different stages or pre-publication.
I have also written a fantasy novella that I hope to publish soon. Publishing a novel was a childhood ambition, one that I set aside a long time ago. Since then, I have added wife and mother, student, childcare educator, visual artist and chaplain to my list of achievements. To help me appreciate the brighter moments, God has guided me through dark days in the wilderness, where my faith has been tested. I have learned a lot about myself and my ambitions while writing these books.
The confidence I have gained as a storyteller has enriched my character. I believe it has made me a humbler disciple of Jesus Christ, a more determined encourager, a better friend. When I first lost myself to the rediscovered joy of writing, my horizons expanded. My fictional world became populated with characters who whispered their stories to me. They have grown more insistent as the words have appeared on the pages. This was how A River Wild series was born.
