Image result for mangere arts centre Have been so busy with work, studies and so much to do but received some great news this week of having been successful in two grant proposals from our local Board and arts advisor for: a publication for a local writers group and funding towards my first local exhibition which will be held at Mangere Arts centre around mid year.

This is such a blessing as it was something that I had been wanting to do for a while both a publication that provides an opportunity for local unpublished writers to see their writing in print and also to invite local schools and any interested to an exhibition that offers an opportunity to meet with me, as a local writer, educator and artist and share my works and some of my story with a Q n A time.

So next week will finalise the contracts etc. and book venues, catch up with various key individuals and share this neat news with our local writers group with dates to be booked and plans to be made. Let the fun begin!

Again, this is a dream come true of being able to work within the local community with plans to share some of the knowledge that I've picked up over the years and to also inspire (whoever is interested) to pursue their goals despite the obstacles.

Roll on 2017...
