Sharyn Bentley

I am an average Australian woman with a creative mind. Even as a child I tried to write. I self-published my first book in 2008; and have kept going from there. I am locally known for my humorous children's stories although I do not limit myself to categories. I am now exploring writing poetry and maybe a novel or 2. My mind just never stops turning over ideas. When I'm not writing I am making candles. Both my hard copy book and candles I sell at weekend flea markets. My social time. So you might say; I do book signing every weekend! If anyone ever so wished to buy an autographed book :-) More information at www.sharynbentley.com.au Looking forward to constant creating and sharing! and thank you for your interest. :-)

A compilation of poetry pieces; written over time of several styles.

This book includes pieces that are self-portraying, my dreams, imagination running wild, reflective and some cute little pieces that are quite descriptive about things found in nature. Some have never looked at the things in nature the same after perusing these pieces.

I’m sure you’ll find a favourite in here somewhere!

A special thanks to my friend Robert; who inspired me to write again.

He would say to me right now – See what you can do?

Me – The Author and the story behind

A few of my poetry pieces show no matter what you have been presented with in life, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel. Life has many ups and downs, but with the right frame of mind, support and friends, the downs in your life can usually be overcome.

Life is what you make it

My followers, as I have been putting this book together, have often said to me things like; That really made me think; I never pictured this in this way before; etc.

I simply just write what comes to mind. I have seen some dark days in my life. Maybe not as dark a days as others have experienced, but still dark. Sometimes it just takes the simplest of things to bring that light back and a combination of support. I was taught by a few psychologists how to turn negative thinking around. We are surrounded by negativity but we are also surrounded by a lot of positives, if we shall only stop, take a few deep breaths and look around us.

Nowadays when I hit a pot hole in my path of life, it is my friends that help me step over or around those crevices. The psychologists have done their job. It just takes my friends to reach out and take my hand (and not literally) for me to overcome my hurdles and daily challenges now.

One particular friend gave me the encouragement I needed to get back into my writing. I had already self-published a few books before my life had hit another huge pot hole. I admit I fell headlong into this one. I had given up. Then I met this person. Hearing this persons life stories and seeing what they had achieved and the efforts they put into everyday and still be there to take my hand so to speak in their exceptionally busy life. I realised where I was at and strived to be something myself. I got back out there and hit life head on! I stopped giving up on things just because they appeared too difficult. I got in and did….
