What a beautiful description of your beloved homeland! It makes me wish I were an islander, as I've always loved being near the ocean!

Thank you. It's a unique existence and what I love is that as a future setting for any contemporary novel I might decide to write, it's able to be romanticised beautifully, while still keeping its essential harsh essence.

Prue, this is so beautiful. I admit the only thing I've ever known about Tasmania is that a cartoon devil came from there, and so did Errol Flynn. It sounds wonderful. As an islander, I understand the draw, but you've described it so wonderfully, I'm going to have to go back and read it again, just to savor it.

Wow!

Thank you so much, Ramona. It's probably no more beautiful than your own islands (there are magic ones in the North America continent, aren't there?!) but our souls know what we love, I think.
