About

I am a freelance writer and a passionate animal lover and advocate. I write the ‘What’s On’ column for The Bayswater Buzz and The Ferntree Gully News, as well as writing romance novels. I have recently completed my first Children’s picture book and I am hoping to have it published. I have three noisy, cheeky children and a household full of pets that keep me on my toes. I am fortunate enough to have the most amazing family and friends that help keep me sane and grounded. I always look on the positive side of life, for me the glass remains half full.

  4. I have in my followings mostly kind bloggers; more than I dreamed. So many bloggers on my list have done a kindness for me and/or for others or for bloggers using reblog or giving encouragements and by posting helpful information to community.

  5. Aloha! Thanks for coming and visiting our silly little dog blog! We look forward to following your stories, too, and getting to know more about all things dog scene in far away (to us) Melbourne.

  6. Thanks so much for following my blog. I recently finished another dog drawing and should be posting it soon. I like what you have to say here on your site and will be back.

  7. Hello newest Spikey! I know, a bit corny, eh, but that’s the term that has come to stick for those folk who are part of the clan known to be followers of Uncle Spike πŸ™‚

    Thank you… I really appreciate that as I for one, know how many interesting and entertaining blogs are out there.

    My aim is to deliver an eclectic offering of posts, from my β€˜point n shoot’ attempts at basic photography, to the sharing of my travel adventures over the decades, as well as day to day happenings here on the farm. Oh, plus a few observations on life as I see it, thrown in for good measure.

    My promise to you is not to be overbearing, just a couple of posts a day, maybe 3 at weekends if I have something special to share. But if you are at a loose end one day, maybe you’ll enjoy trawling through some of my older stuff too. I have added plenty of categories to help in said digging process.

    Thanks again and hope you have a great day…

  13. Hi Diana, thank you for visiting my blog. I have been enjoying checking out your blog as well. I also have a beloved dog! He always tries to eat the food when I am photographing it for my blog posts, which makes food photo shoots tricky! πŸ™‚ I look forward to more of your posts.
