I am leaving the old blurb below so you can see where I’m from, but as of this morning (13th March 2014) I have handed in my dissertation which means that I am on my long walk into the real world.
When I say real world I am still talking about writing. I can’t think of doing anything else. Now it is just whether I will survive. And although you might call me optimistic I think I will. I hope. 😀
* * * * *
I am a **** something writer who is new at this… And this is the reason I am studying for the masters and who I am:
I run a soft toy manufacturing company and I’m an artist. Both of these companies are successful. I would like to include author to the list but, using an art metaphor, I feel that although I know how to stretch a canvas I have only one colour paint to work with.
I live in west Wales in a small place called Tregaron. We normally get snowed in every year for about three days despite living on a bus route. I have a dog and cat, both ginger (accidental) and I help run a smallholding with my parents. We are mostly self-sufficient for veg and we raise our own animals (yes for meat).
When I can I write, when I’m not writing I make toys or paint pets. Any spare time I sleep.

Hello Dear,
You have a beautiful blog here. I loved your theme. Great content and the colours are easy on the eyes.I was intrigued to read it and was wondering if you and I could be collaborators. I am a new blogger and started my humble blog some three months ago and had almost 3,300 followers. I believe blogging community is the most supportive and encouraging community. I want some writers as well. I kept unwell and was looking for someone who would like to post on my blog too. I would be highly obliged if you take a look at my blog and allow me an opportunity to collaborate with you. I love to write and write for some Ezines and Webzines like Roberta Pimentel and The Millionaire’s Digest. I write poetry, free articles, short stories and all other things. I can write content you want and word limit can be followed too.
😊🌹🙏❄️
Warm Regards
Sakhi
