| Introduction | I was born in Brisbane and grew up in western Queensland and on the Gold Coast. I worked as a newspaper and television journalist, public relations and public affairs officer and freelance correspondent in Australia, the UK, Japan and Saudi Arabia. I have three grown children, one grandchild and a grand-dog. I am retired and spend my time with the quotidian personal and family doings, trying to keep the brain and body fit, and trying to stay marginally in touch in our ever-changing technological environment. |
