How I did it: I learnt through classes, stitch & bitch groups, sewing circles & watching my Nanna at her machine - but ultimately it took me just diving in there and having a go. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I've been writing and sending off pieces since I was 15, and this will be the second anthology I am to be published in, but the first paid one. The book - Visible: a Femmethology is due out in March 2009 and I can't wait! Read how I did it…
It’s now early January 2011 and I’m due to give birth any day! I finally faced my fears and saw – yet another – fertility specialist who successfully worked out why I wasn’t conceiving… After surgery, grief & hope (in equal parts), fertility drugs and patience I finally conceived… and have been told there is no reason why I shouldn’t conceive again in the future.
This has been worth the grief, pain and twelve years of trying… I’m going to be a Mama ANY DAY NOW! Woo hoo!
