Overview

About the Book

'60 Questions, Insights and Reminiscences' is a sometimes humorous look at life, with its dilemmas; tempered by years of observation, and the wisdom of hindsight.
One of life's great ironies is that sometimes, something positive, and quite unexpected, grows out of adversity. This book is a consequence of my writing a piece entitled 'What's Good About Losing?', which in turn came about because I entered a competition, and, like so many others, demonstrated my fallibility. My husband Ronald Sharp B.E.M., the creator of the Grand Organ in the Concert Hall of the Sydney Opera House, read and liked my article so much that he steered me into writing this book: delving, often laterally, into society's attitudes and strategies.
At length, my childhood sprang to mind, and I included topics on the theme of 'Can You Remember?' Doubtless, many, if not most, baby boomers will relate to my ideas about this era.
In common with my four previously published volumes of Short Stories, this book has been edited by my husband, He has incorporated his system of word spacing which he believes aids in comprehension, clarity and ease of reading.
'60 Questions, Insights and Reminiscences' aims to provide interesting, stimulating, and easily comprehensible reading that engages people from many age-groups and walks of life. Why not compare your own ideas with those expressed in this book?

About the Author

About the Author

Margaret Lynette Sharp is writer, having published four collections of modern Australian Short Stories during 2011. Many readers, both women and men of widely varying ages and occupations, have praised her work as being hard to put down.
She is a life-long resident of Sydney, Australia. Most of her life has been spent living in a quiet, leafy, river-side suburb. A member of the local swimming club for almost thirty years, she is still competing with success. Another of her community involvements consists of the frequently published Letters to the Editor of her local paper, on a wide variety of topics.
Apart from writing and swimming, Margaret enjoys music, both as a listener and player. She likes both classical and modern pieces. Her other interests include painting in watercolour, caring for her pets, and dancing.
She is married to Ronald Sharp B.E.M., the creator of the Grand Organ in the Concert Hall of the Sydney Opera House. Throughout her work, Ron has encouraged and supported her, providing much practical help in bringing these volumes into being.
