Bergen Saturday 17th May 2014 I’m so tired it is not funny. I slept until about 4 am on the train. Outside it was already light, though the sun was not up. It was snowy and white out. Very cold, I imagine! I went back to sleep, then when I next looked out at about […] Oslo – Bergen Friday 16th May 2014 On my second day in Oslo my purpose was to go to the Norsk Folkemuseum. My first need (apart from the huge breakfast in the restaurant – cereal, soy milk, bacon, two fried eggs, some turkey meatballs, two pieces of GF bread, orange juice and lots of fresh […] Over the next little while, I thought I might share some of my diary and photos of my trip to Norway with you.

So beautifully set out with clear easy instructions to follow. Congratulations.” I do like this stage of the book process (who doesn’t […] Yesterday was a big day for me. My dad and I hired a truck, drove to the other side of Sydney, loaded 3.5 tonnes of books (that’s 253 cartons) into the truck, drove it back and with the help of some fabulous friends, unloaded them all. That’s a lot of books! THE BOOKS ARE HERE! […] Hardanger band from Early Style Hardanger If you’re interested in self-publishing, Women in Focus has done a profile on me, focusing particularly on the self-publishing aspects of my work. You can read the article here. For those who are interested in the image that accompanies the article (and is shown here), yes, this […] At about 11am yesterday morning, there was a knock on the front door. I went out to the courier. “You have no idea how pleased I am to see this parcel!” “Oh, I thought you were going to say how pleased you were to see me.” (I’d never seen this fellow before in my […] Late on Friday afternoon I received an email from my printer saying that my advance copies were on their way.
