I’m so glad you’ve taken the time to visit! You'll find information about my books, and updates on what I am doing - as author, educator and publisher. Retired from teaching and missionary work now, my working time is spend in admin of our publishing company, and revising and developing the Sunrise Reading Scheme and Resources. I continue to enjoy monthly ladies' Bible studies, and - after four years as a registered breeder of persian chinchilla cats - I now enjoy our two exquisite retired queens and Lady Arwen Evenstar's gorgeous boy, Sir Baymax Boniface.

From my Blog:
2018 has been a tough year for Mum. On July 24, she fell and broke her hip. We are SO grateful to the doctors and staff at Victoria Hospital in Wynberg for the outstanding care they gave her. After her hip replacement op, an amazing physio friend helped Mum with rehab, as did the wonderful staff at Nerina Gardens. At age 88, Mum is walking again (with a walker) and back in her own room at Nerina Gardens. This has been a set-back and Mum is definitely more frail than before the fall. She is also naturally nervous about falling again, so it has been a confidence-shaker. Thank you to all who have prayed for her. Prayers are appreciated! She has made a wonderful recovery, and we are grateful to God.
