This was the view we had tonight on pulling up at our motel. |
...living the reality of a "retired" person, which means I work harder than ever at being a writer, lurching from one deadline to another.
About Me
- Glenda Larke
- Australia
- My life was described by one of my editors as “impossibly exotic” – although really it was not my life, but me, that was the exotic, the uprooted plant, the one who didn’t belong, always living in someone else’s backyard...
Now I am back in Australia, the returning native learning to live where I was born. Writer, traveler, environmentalist. Author of The Isles of Glory trilogy (The Aware, Gilfeather, The Tainted); The Mirage Makers trilogy (Heart of the Mirage, Shadow of Tyr, Song of the Shiver Barrens); The Stormlord trilogy The Last Stormlord, Stormlord Rising, Stormlord's Exile, and writing as Glenda Noramly, a stand-alone book Havenstar.
LATEST: THE FORSAKEN LANDS A clash of cultures and magic as traders and buccaneers hunt for spices and wealth in the Va-forsaken half of the world ... even as the unidentified darkness of plague and murder stalks their own land. THE LASCAR'S DAGGER , THE DAGGER'S PATH and final book, THE FALL OF THE DAGGER available worldwide now! A new standalone work is now with my publisher...

THE BIG TRIP: PERTH TO CAIRNS AND RETURN
Packing the car at dawn at the motel in Coolgardieafter our first night away. |
WE ARE HEADING OUT...looking at some corners of Australia after we endured a series of health issues for more than six months. Now that things are looking up, we are off to explore...

Glowing gold-burnished Eucalypt trees near Norseman |
Lake Cowan -- mostly dry and salt... |
At Eyre, looking at the great Southern Ocean. It was cold and windy! |
Bunda Cliffs, Head of the Great Australian Bight, where the female Right Whales come in from the Antarctic to give birth once every 3 years or so... |
(And before you ask, they are called Right Whales because they were considered the "right" whales to hunt because they swam slowly and floated when killed. As a consequence they were once hunted to the edge of extinction)
And if you look carefully you will see the female Right Whale centre right. Ok, so it looked better through binoculars!! |
