Ah well, it’s not exactly Lover’s Lane, but walking up Bald Rock (in the rain, no less) is definitely heart racing! My take on this little-known wonder in today’s @escape.com.au 💚 #escape #hiking #baldrocknationalpark #tenterfield

A blur of love for this girl, who I’ve known since we were singing our way through high school. Now she’s knocking ‘em dead at the Opera House 🤩🌟⭐️ @marissasaroca #rent

I got so much out of writing this story, which appears in today’s @bodyandsoul_au. I spoke with five very different spiritual leaders and was struck by how similar their stories were - it’s been a year like no other, but connecting with community as a balm for anxiety and finding peace in nature were common themes. And I had to laugh when Bhante Akaliko, a Buddhist monk, told me that he had no idea about the panic buying until people started offering him toilet paper on his daily alms! I also loved his point that we don’t get to choose when life throws us a curveball - only to see it as an opportunity to grow if we choose. Lots more wisdom like this in the article- would love to hear your thoughts if you read it 🙏

I’ve been working on a new direction this year - a pivot, if you will. I’m now excited to be offering structural editing for fiction as part of my repertoire (and in a few months, I’ll be ready to offer copyediting for fiction and non-fiction books, too).

While I’m building up my experience in this area I’m offering reduced rates for full and mini structural edits, so if you’re a budding author (or know someone who is!) and you’d like some insightful and sensitive feedback on your manuscript before self-publishing or approaching publishers, get in touch! 📖📚✏️
