So,  I’ve been sitting on this ‘first post’ for a while, and it turns out I can add procrastination to the list of things I’m really rather good at.

“I’m not a writer” was a particular concern, until my friend Anna gave me some great advice and recommended I write each post as if talking to her.

“What do I start with?” has been the latest hold up, to which another friend Carly advised ‘start with just that’.

And now I’m all out of excuses.

Carly and Anna, thank you, I’ve done it, I’m here and posting. Yeahi me!

I have so many things to share with you all, it’s a bit overwhelming knowing where to start, so instead I thought I’d use this opportunity to tell you about the themes I’ll be covering and some teaser posts.
