    Retirement from Writing

    By quokka,


    Retirement
    Dear GA
    Just five days before the 12th anniversary of me joining GA, I have come to realisation,
    that I am not able to continue my writing hobby.
    I wish to thank every one on GA for all of your support over the many years I have been a part of this writing group.
    I will continue to monitor my page from time to time for any comments, emails and messages.
    Wishing you all a happy and prosperous new year in 2026 and beyond.
    Regards Preston Wigglesworth Esq 
    Aka - Quokka

    Hello my faithful followers.
    i hope that you had a happy and safe Christmas and enjoy the approaching New Year celebrations. (Just two hours and 41 minutes away here in WA Australia…)
    I am currently writing a new story, which i will start posting soon.
    I recently learnt that i have cataracts in both eyes and i have surgery planned for both in mid and late January, just a few weeks away. Not sure how it will turn out, but here is hoping that all will be good afterwards.
    i will have posted all the chapters of the new story before the surgery, just in case.
    Best wishes to all.
    Regards Preston aka Quokka

    By quokka,

    Hi, I am trying to find a story I read a while back, about a guy who is employed by an old school mate, to be a minder for his difficult younger brother.
    does anyone know the name of the story?

    Next story

    Three days to go...
    My newest story, a Premium ‘Coming Out’ story will begin on Sunday, USA Eastern time.
    Titled; Heartache and Terror.
    The story is once again based in Australia, with the clashing of values between three generations of the Kenrick family.

    Holiday

    By quokka,

    Hello my faithful readers, just letting you know that I am currently in the city of Darwin, in the Northern Territory Of Australia, after completing a three day and two night.experience on the Ghan train from Adelaide in the South to the Northern capital of Darwin, which is a 2720 kilometre journey.
    Saw some incredible sights, and I hope to include my experiences in future stories. The Ghan train had a total of two engines and 38 carriages and it was 902 metres long.

    Thursday 30/8

    By quokka,

    Dear GA
    It is late Thursday morning, I have no idea where the past few days have gone. My anxiety levels have been up and down a bit this week, having to deal with government red tape, grrr, they are impossible sometimes.
    I have just finished another one of my stories, and already had many requests for a book two, I'm not sure if I can or not, I will have to think about it some more.
    meanwhile, I have gone back to the one unfinished story, and I am hoping to find a suitable conclusion for it, but at the moment I have non...
    well that is all for now.

    Monday 27/8

    By quokka,

    Dear GA
    I have fallen into that bad patten again, of staying up to the very early hours of the morning, and going to bed around 9am, and sleeping most of the day.
    Yes, I hear you, I know it is bad for me, but I just can't help it.
    The medications that I am on really screw me up sometimes, and although I am no longer gaining weight, I am still over weight and I can't seem to loose it.
    I guess the addiction to Coca Cola doesn't help either, but I do try to eat healthy, with plenty of fruit and veg.
    i really need to get into a fitness routine, but I just don't have the motivation to do it, and not having any family of friends near by doesn't help me either.
    i just don't know what to do...
    well that is all for now.

    Thursday 6/9

    By quokka,

    Dear GA
    I know it has been a while, I have been in a state of nothingness this past week.
    i have just started writing again, and although I am still taking it easy, I have managed to complete another two chapters of an un finished story, which I am sure my followers will be pleased about.
    life seems to be sliding by at a rate that I can sometimes not keep track of, with me having to check my mobile phone, to see what day it is.
    i sometimes wonder what the hell have I done during my life, and the truth is stuff all really, which doesn't help with my moods.
    well that is all for now.

    Rest In Peace Moggy

    By quokka,

    As many have noticed Moggy has been offline for some time.
    she has been my editor for a while and got to know her a bit with our many emails.
    Because I knew what town she lived in, I was able to track down her phone number.
    Sadly a recorded message from her ex husband announces that she has passed away.
    Rest In Peace Dear Lady, you will be greatly missed.
    Info Update; Moggy passed away on Friday the 6th of April, aged 55.
