Marie Clair

I live in Brisbane. Most recently, I have taught in the language department at CQ University, and in China.

I have a B.A. Dip Counselling & Psychotherapy, Dip ESL TESOL IELTS and Remedial Therapies - none of which helped in my search for identity - except to provide important discipline.

Life matters and the 'school of hard knocks' gave me a phd, not the worldly qualifications I gleaned on my way down.

I have been busy lately, getting the 'I' voice out. Stories told in 'Undone' and 'Unsung', currently unpublished.

My first novel will be published soon.

'Brides of War'

An historical, family saga about the three generations, two World Wars, the Cold War, and the wars that wage within.
