About the author

I'm an Aussie now. I left the US back in 1988 for an extended visit and have based myself in Australia ever since. IT was my career and in the end I found it profitable but unrewarding. So I've switched gears and now write as a passion, hobby and "job". It is the opposite of IT, not profitable in the slightest, but VERY rewarding.

I hope some of you manage to read one of my books, STARTING OVER or LIFE'S JOURNEYS, and especially that you like reading them even one-tenth as much as I liked writing then.

If all goes well, maybe you'll get a chance to read my next 2 or 3 books in the not-too-distant future as well.

Sophie's journey through the ups and downs of the IT world is constantly bugged by coming against the "boy's club" and the ubiquitous glass ceiling. Her search for true love is equally as frustrating, but with a little bit of help from friends and an ability to accept and adapt to changes, she finally manages to find a life that is rewarding and gives her hopes for the future she has always strived to find.

This is an entertaining look at life today, well written and a definite must read.

This is my book so you might expect me to say I loved it - which I did. It was fun to write but also fun to read. It's light hearted because the protagonist has a way of viewing her numerous obstacles with a twinkle in her eye as she pushes through. The IT world can really get you down (I'm speaking from experience here) but Sophie doesn't let it keep her down!
