An author of 18 books (to date), my Super Power is whatsroundthenextcornerism. I shed the light of acceptance on those who deftly avoid being run down by one-bucket pigeon holeists.

We are adventureists, curiousists and whatsroundthenextcornerists. We revel in the ordered chaos of anarchy and know that pigeon holes are for pigeons; not for humans.

I never set out to be this way and my not-fitting-into one bucket has caused much drama and depression. I have oft wished I was otherwise but, in moments of clarity, I rejoice in the diversity my life has brought.

So, what does a whatsroundthenextcornerist look like? I have:

* Lived in over 50 houses, in 4 countries and have landed in at least 28 international airports.
* Been married 3 times and divorced 2.
* Qualifications in business (BBS, ACA, Dip Bus, DipL&M), Life Choice Sciences (Counselling, Life Coaching & Transactional Analysis) & in teaching (CAT, CTA, Cert IV T&E, LLN).
* Represented my school at more sports than anyone else, by 1971,  and that record still stands.

In NZ I experienced life as an accountant, credit manager, company director, shepherd, scrub-cutter, tree pruner, freezing worker, plastics factory worker, saxophonist, army driver, tour bus driver, stage and television actor and singer, builder, lecturer, facilitator for men's groups, reporter, columnist, magazine editor, publisher, writer ...

In Sth Africa as an AIDS workshop co-facilitator ...

In the Australian bush as a barman, horse & camel trekker &  stock-whip teacher ...

In UK as a contract accountant, corporate trainer, estate manager, lecturer, singer/songwriter, website editor/writer & freelance writer ...

Back in Australia, house renovating, teaching, writing & website building. Then, in 2019, we're off to NZ to "settle" and we'll be speaking at the Lokinwi Festival in September, in Johannesburg, South Africa.
