The fact I am alive today is a miracle. The surgery for aneurysms resulted in most of my aorta having a very long graft. Three surgeons had called me called a walking time bomb.
But here I am. Well and busy.
I was born in Peebles, a town in the Scottish borders, but moved to Australia in 1975. I live in Perth, Western Australia.
I have worked as a shop assistant, double loom weaver, trained as a Psychiatric nurse and worked as an After-care Nursing Sister in an outpatient clinic and in the community.
My last job (before being bitten by the writing bug) was as a certified computer trainer. (Certificate IV in Training and Assessing). The holder of a Microsoft Master qualification in Office 2007, I enjoyed my work in a Registered Training Centre. I also had some private students and wrote manuals for them re-interpreting the jargon filled, missing steps manuals that left beginners wanting to quit. I loved the 'aha' moment when it clicked for a student, especially mature aged learners.
So far two books in this series have been published. Hold the Faith, and book 2, Grow in Grace.
After the death of my husband, I was unable to concentrate for long, so spent my writing time completing 'Geoff's Last Journeyings', a record for friends and family my husband's last year in the battle with Pulmonary Fibrosing. I have also kept up my blogs... Hold the Faith.
Now, it is time to start work on the existing first draft of book three in the Apostle John series
.
Christian history fascinates me and a Bible Study on the Apostle John inspired me to set this history down.
I am a practising Christian, a Sabbath keeper and member of a very supportive church.
