| a (very) short history of me and blogging | June 29, 2014 | Tomorrow is the last day of #blogjune. How quickly it has made June zip by. Over the month the challenge to post something everyday has really made me reflect on the way my blog has changed over the years.

I also give […] |

| The book | November 3, 2010 | Tremendous excitement and relief today as I got word that my book is now printed and available for purchase.
