Can you think of a title for my new book?

I’m just about to submit the first five chapters of my next non-fiction book. ALL I NEED IS A TITLE. IF YOU CAN THINK OF ONE I’d sure like to hear it. Just drop a line on the contact page of my website http://www.michelegierck.com.au

This book is a post-injury come-back story in which the bush, the ocean and a bloke (a fellow) all play their part.

Here’s the pitch.

When Michele, a broken down sojourner (kind of Liz Gilbertish), meets Mac, a dedicated river scientist (think a young David Attenborough), she is drawn into his orbit, the gravity of which propels her onto an uncharted trajectory.

If you’d like to know more about this book, like the title and publication details, just sign up to the newsletter on my website.

We All Look for Our Nectar

Springtime. Blossoms bloom and bees buzz. This scene reminds me that we are all looking for a little nectar of our own.

And the garden is the perfect place to take a break. Relax. Be absorbed in the moment. In each bloom.

Slow down: see the natural beauty

It was on a recent walk in the Grampians that we spotted these beautiful native orchids in flower. So delicate and so delightful. Sometimes it really does pay to slow down.

We All have Our Time to Bloom

Just like this blossom, we all have our time to bloom. It just has to be the right season.

Spring Delight

Blue sky, bright warm sunshine, and buzzing bees. The start of spring puts such a spring in our steps — at least this time of year in the southern hemisphere.

Time to Bloom

Just like flowers in the garden, we can never be sure when we, or those around us, are going to bloom.

This flower, a grevillea, which for quite some time I thought was an evergreen, suddenly burst into flower seven years after I first noticed it!

Just shows that sometimes in life it’s worth the wait.

One of two places I love: the garden and the library.
Two things I love: stories and flowers.

Appreciating a Tiny Patch of The World

The reddish/orange wattle arches in the foreground. The yellow wattle stands taller in the background. A little red grevillea between the two. Such inspiration can be found, even in this tiny patch of the world that’s my front garden.
