Sorry to be bragging about another magazine publication, but this is the first time I’ve made it into Australia’s Take 5, so it’s quite exciting for me.
Who’s Perfect Anyway? is about characters who have flaws. It’s not uncommon for fiction characters to be flawed in some way – they’re like real people in that (besides too much perfection would be boring, would
n’t it?).
In this story, I’ve tried to turn the idea of a flawed character on its head (and toes) and twist them into advantages.

Thanks, Ann.
It isn’t, Ann. I’ve sold stories in South Africa and Sweden too. They publish those in Swedish, but thankfully someone else does the translation.

Well done PAtsy. Do the Australian Women’s Weekly still exist? And do fiction?
