Profile Information

Who I am:
My name is Sarah Jane and I have always dreamt of being a writer. The old adage that everyone has a book in them, has haunted me my whole life. Every time I experience something good or bad, I feel the urge to write about it. 'Is this my one book inside me?' A year ago as a family, we lost our home in the Queensland floods and it was a turning point in my life. I have been a registered general nurse for 26 years, but at a time when you have to make life changing decisions about where to live and where to work, what really counts is what's inside you, how you feel and the love of the people around you. Sitting in a caravan in Queensland after the floods contemplating our future, my husband Nigel, always positive and honest said, "if you want to be a writer you need to just do it. Do something about it, learn how to write or just write. So I did.

And delighted to have you in the novelist group! You might introduce yourself by telling us what you’re working on in the “Show Me Your Novel and I’ll Show You Mine” discussion if you're not too uncomfortable talking about what you're working on. We save the wall for discussion, so please refrain from linking to blog posts there, but do add them in the “Links to Helpful Blog Posts for Writers” discussion thread.

And we do a live chat every Wednesday at 1EST; instructions on how to participate are in the "Our Water Cooler Wednesdays" box near the top of the group page.
