Seriously?
What’s something you would attempt if you were guaranteed not to fail. Publish my book/books. Also hold a photography exhibition. However, I’m stifled by my fear of success and failure. Also, there’s still those voices of long past who told me “you’re not good enough!” . Perhaps it may even be my ego, trying to…

Too many to choose from, yet again!
Who are your favorite artists? Artists, as in musical? Performing? Art, Art? Writing? Old masters? New minds? So, instead I’m going to tackle this question from another angle.

Too easy
List three jobs you’d consider pursuing if money didn’t matter. A full time writer. A full time photographer. A full time mixed media artist. Oh, and just as an added bonus, a full time travel writer, who gets to travel every where for free. I can live the dream, can’t I?

A whole life of poignant advice (ok and plenty that wasn’t- but hey I sensibly & intuitively ignored that rubbish)
What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received? During my wedding day celebrations my father stood amongst a seriously quiet room, each person’s gaze affixed on each and every emotionally heartfelt word. He said through tears of love, pride, joy and concern “marriage is about communication, make sure you really talk, really stop and…
