A friend alerted me to this page. Is this going to make the whole premise of my book redundant? Have I wasted the last three years? More importantly, have I just been focussing on the problem, rather than the solution? Is the solution to a disruptive partner as simple as having a knitted boyfriend. I’m […]
An article caught my eye recently about those members of the human race who can exist on a few hours of sleep each night. The main reason articles of this type catch my eye is usually driven by a healthy (or unhealthy – not sure?) jealousy I have for those people who can get by
Excuse me for the lingering indulgence, but I wanted to share my book launch. Last week (10 April to be exact) I launched my book at Avid Reader, in West End (Brisbane). It was a fantastic night and a fantastic experience. The room was full of friends, and friends of friends. The buzz in the
