    G'day from the land down under!

    I like to write short stories. a poem or two but mostly storied. My longest piece of about 18,000 word is entitled "The big white gum tree."

    I showcase my work on my own website and would like to share it with you. I hope to become an active and long term member here. In the meantime here is my site. I hope this is allowed.

    Admin note: off site link removed.

    Hi Rupert. Welcome to WF.
