I am an Australian, and this is my first book of fiction. I enjoy writing short stories and poetry about people and the situations they find themselves in. I like to observe people and their interactions with others and the characters in this book have been created from some of the people I have seen. The characters are a blend of real and fictitious people. It is also a story about women helping other women so that they can achieve personal and financial freedom, no matter what their age or background.
