I am a member of the local SCA group, am a published poet (Australia's Best Poetry, 2001), enjoy brewing and herbalism, speak French rather dodgily, play all manner of percussion instruments, sew, knit, embroider, do yoga and pilates, latin dancing, enjoy travelling when I can, and adore organic and permaculture gardening.
