The Hazards of the Modern Writer-Postman. Episode 5.

I love nature. I try to get along with all of the creatures in our world. But they don’t always get along with me!

Here I am – minding my own writer-postman business when this peewee (a bird that is NOT a magpie and therefore should not be swooping and pecking anyone!) decided he didn’t want me anywhere near his family’s nest. Okay. Fair enough. I’d protect my family too, but I was only passing through. I have to pass through everyday as this location is part of my delivery round.

Live and let live, bird. Come on, dude, lighten up!

I'm a children's and YA author from Australia. I've published books with very sensible titles such as 'Susie Smelly-feet', 'Birdbrain' and 'Red Goes Green'. I've also written scripts for Australian television dramas such as 'Neighbours' and 'Home and Away'. I've always hankered to publish a crime novel for grown-ups and at present I'm embarking on a crime writing career.

  1. Congratulations! You’ve just broken a peewee’s heart! It was trying to improve itself, aim higher, become the bird of its dreams! And all you do is turn its heroic efforts into a mockumentary. Shame on you!
