MY FAVOURITE SITES



G'day,

These are sites I'd encourage you to visit. They are hard working Australian and international authors, playwrights, writers, poets and organisations, striving to achieve the impossible against great odds. As we say in Australia, 'Give them a fair go'.

Author of "The Australian Medical Dictionary ". She is fast becoming an accomplished writer, as well as being a gifted and talented painter and sketch artist. Her second book, "The Medical Dictionary of Conditions and Diseases",  was released in the UK in June 2012. Watch this space, for there is another book on its way on men's health.
