Article post on Jozi Kids’ Blog

Every now and then I get an opportunity to stretch my writing into a more personal and family space by writing something for Jozi Kids’ Blog. There are times I get asked to put something forward around a theme they’re working on, and then there are times I end up writing something that I submit in case it works for them.

Merle who acts as many things at Jozi Kids is a great resource to me in my writing. I often babble on saying way to little with way too many words (you can ask Leish to verify that). Merle helps with that : )

My latest post was around an expeirence I had with myself while driving my mother home from a Grannie’s day at our daughter’s school.

What makes a great Christmas?

There’s an aspiring author I know well, who’s recently had an article featured on Jozi Kids. The post is called, ‘Christmas – Money, Mystery and Imagination‘.

It’s a fun post about family and the role of imagination, money and mystery when you’re talking Christmas.

Let’s be honest, it doesn’t matter who you are, or what your philosophies might be, when Christmas starts making it’s entrance, all of us, every last one, begins to feel a flutter somewhere deep down in our tummies. And yes, Christmas is over-the-top commercial, and we probably don’t really understand it’s origins, and it is all make believe. But those are exactly the three elements needed to create tummy fluttering stuff. Money, Mystery and a monster dose of Imagination.

A merry Christmas to all of you. And for those that wander over to Jozi Kids to take a read, thanks for going. Every click helps : )
