Life Bites

This is a collection of poems, short stories (some autobiographical, some fictionalised) and essays written over the course of the last 40 plus years. It is simply a compilation of a variety of writing I engaged in in the course of my writing “career” and reflects different moods, some painful regarding lost love, others reflections on the beauty of nature, the joy of motherhood, the pleasure of spontaneity, and dreams gained and lost. As the tile “Life Bites” suggests, these are just bits and pieces of a woman’s life..
