PRE- ORDER Fleur's newest novel 'Voices in the Dark'
I’m not a chocolate freak, at all. At least not like Anthony, who can make a family size block of chocolate disappear over two night!

DetailsLook at all our beautiful hay! The cows will be happy with us this year!

Holly, the pregnant Kelpie, has…
DetailsA note from the webmistress Salutations all!

DetailsToday was a very exciting day! Our brand new toy, a John Deere tractor, was delivered.

DetailsWouldn’t it be lovely just to laze in the sun? Well that’s Rex’s life. Completely retired, except for the odd ride in the back of the ute, his life now consists of chasing the sun. One moment he’ll be stretched out in front of the door and I trip over him every time I set…
DetailsIt used to be that if you wanted to buy stock, you jumped in the ute and drove to the sale yards. Not any more! A couple of weeks ago, I sat in front of my computer and kept hitting the enter button. Why? I was bidding on a stud ram auction that was being held in…
DetailsI guess everyone thinks that Red Dust was the first book I ever wrote… but it wasn’t! One of my oldest friends came to stay with me, around the time Red Dust was launched and brought with her, my first book. Not quite novel length and titled very plainly, ‘The Letter’ you can see the illustrations…
DetailsThis is Wally. Actually his real name is Law, but he’s a bit of a Wally, and he’s been called it that many time, he comes to that name too. You would have to wonder what was going through his head, when he decided to go to sleep like this! He stayed like this for about twenty minutes…
DetailsI’ve been really busy since I received the Blue Skies edit last week. Ali has done a really intensive edit that then needs me to read through and either say yes to the changes, or no.
