She has exchanged the role of mental health social worker for that of writer and gardener.
Having an answer to the tedious 'what do you do?' question is one of many positives of the writing life. Gail writes because she loves writing and combines it with maintaining an urban paradise in order to balance the budget. As she has managed to carve out a niche in life to provide time, energy and space to write, she is sometimes the recipient of envy and snide remarks. The dirty fingernails from garden grubbing, a preference for free camp sites or the artistic patches sewn on many clothes are not noticed.
Her family refer to her as Her Right Royal Green Thumbs (HRRGT) when she is grubbing potatoes, the Head Gardener when directing the under-gardener, the matriarch when overseeing a family function or the Matron when managing a crisis. Her home has lots of books and an untidy garden for her four grand-daughters to enjoy.
Gail's latest challenge is staying ahead of the latest crisis while maintaining a sense of humour.
She still has a reading addiction, plays violin and dabbles in art. She lives in Hobart Tasmania.view less
