Two articles published
Finding freedom via a support group
My two articles on support groups have been published recently by Health Care Consumers Association (HCCA).
The articles are based on two questions that headed a discussion on pain in 2012 and are relevant today.
In the first part of my story I speak about my experiences, while the second part discusses types of support groups and other information relating to chronic pain.

Finding freedom via a support group
My two articles on support groups have been published recently by Health Care Consumers Association (HCCA).
The articles are based on two questions that headed a discussion on pain in 2012 and are relevant today.
- Are support groups necessary?
- Aren’t they just a stagnant group consisting of a stream of complaints, commiseration, and occasional messages of hope and encouragement?
In the first part of my story I speak about my experiences, while the second part discusses types of support groups and other information relating to chronic pain.

Another article Ethics, free will, and psychic advice has been published this time in the International Psychics Association annual magazine on pages 40 and 41.There's a line between a psychic suggesting a strategy, and telling someone what to do ... And, conversely, the person receiving the reading, takes responsibility for their actions, not giving their power over to anyone else.
"Life Research" article
Announcing Suzanne Newnham's new article Using Qi flow in Taiji effecting structural change in feet and reduced pain: a case report has just been published in the current issue of Life Research a peer-reviewed scientific journal.
The report is a personal account discussing techniques using Taiji, Chan Si Gong (Reeling Silk), and Zhan Zhuang (standing meditation), thought-processes, methods of practice and the determination needed to enable structural changes to her foot deformities resulting in normal foot shape, and subsequently relief of intense chronic pain.

New columns published for PnP Authors Magazine
"Since writing my first column there’s been only one month when everything was ‘blah’ and any thought, any energy was just about getting through and not sinking beneath pain rather than trying to compose an article. For the rest of the time writing and seeing words coming to life on my computer screen, allowing them to uplift me, and on reading the drafts hoping that my humble offerings would also be helpful to others, has kept me going."

Free Pain Support & Information event - exercise, physical activity & movement
If you're in Canberra Australia on 22nd August come along to a discussion on exercise, physical activity and movement for chronic pain and fatigue. Suzanne's facilitating the discussion. Healing comes in many forms and exercise is important for a healthy lifestyle. But what if exercise isn't possible due to chronic pain and fatigue, and even the thought of exercise is enough to send your energy plummeting? From walking to the letter box to a supervised gym workout, chat about what’s worked or not worked for you. And what if the thought of moving fills you with concern that your pain will be exacerbated? Don’t worry, you’re not alone. Talk also includes information on Pain Management courses as well as 'Dance for Wellbeing' - for people with chronic pain. Whether you have pain, are family, friend or a carer, or interested in the subject come along on Tuesday 22nd August. Details at www.painsupportact.org.au/event/exercise-physical-activity-and-movement-for-chronic-pain/

2016 - a year of writing
This has been a wonderful year of writing and publishing - my monthly column (health related topics on living and chronic pain) in PnP Authors Promotional magazine; articles in the 2016 International Psychics Directory & Magical Goddess magazines; Secret Society of Words novella "Alien Zoo"; and an article on my late father David Evans and the 'Pearly Shells' Hotel Motel for the Moruya Historical Society (which was published in time to give my mother a copy on what would have been Pappa's 87th birthday).
A big thank you to the Eurobodalla Writers Group and the Secret Society of Words for all your ongoing help and encouragement - you don't know how much this truly means to me. 🌷
Stay tuned about my latest published article which is part of a larger project...

New book - Alien Zoo
Alien Zoo - take the journey with shapeshifters, poachers, plans of escape, and a zoo with a difference ...
I'm delighted to once again be a co-author in the latest SSOW novella, Alien Zoo.
In November 2015 the Eurobodalla Fellowship of Australian Writers' Secret Society of Words (SSOW) took on the challenge of NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month). NaNoWriMo is an international opportunity for writers to write a novel in 30 days. SSOW's challenge was to once again combine different styles and points of view in a creative group project. At times humorous, with a touch of psychological thriller, Alien Zoo will keep you in suspense till the end.
Initial print release sold out. Ebook available through Smashwords.

About my Magazine column
May 2016 edition PnP Authors Promotional Magazine is now available to read. Scroll to Suzanne's Wisdom and my article: Do you know what’s significant about May 12th?
Hint: it is about awareness, chronic conditions, pain, understanding, respect and living.
Here is a snippet of a couple of my articles in August & September 2015 columns.
Brain Fog - "The difference between [writer's] block and brain fog is that with the latter it is as though whatever memory was there never existed. Inspiration and creativity doesn’t exist." But there is hope ...
Pain Awareness - "Pain is an abstract concept. Can you grab the wind? But you know it’s there." "... National Pain Week [Australia-July] and Pain Awareness Month [USA-September] exist ... I wish to leave you with this parting thought. If you were asked to write a short piece for a brochure or something more substantial for marketing, how might you approach the subject of ‘giving people with pain a voice’?"

“Ethics of a Psychic Reading” anniversary
11 July 2012 was a pivotal day - my first book “Ethics of a Psychic Reading: A Guide for Professional and Amateur Messengers of Psychic Information” was published. It was more than a book. My intent was, still is to help others understand about psychic communication and the responsibilities around that gift, that ability. I am fortunate to have support and wise people to help guide me and consequently ethical behaviour is paramount. The e-book is priced so that it is accessible to as many people as possible. The print book is a great addition to the resources to anyone interested in psychic and paranormal phenomena.

NaNoWriMo
National Novel Writing Month – November 2014. Nanowrimo is an international challenge to write a 50,000 word novel in 30 days. This year the Fellowship of Australian Writers (Eurobodalla branch) Evening group is writing a collective novel. Each person writes a section of the novel which will build on a set theme. Writers can take the opportunity to experiment with writing styles or they can maintain their own style of expression.
Over the past week or so my thoughts have gone from floating wisps to random words written on bits of paper or typed and filed. I’ve got notes scattered everywhere! Tomorrow the 1st of November is reckoning day – some sort of order to bring about coherency and a draft in time for our next meeting on Tuesday.
