I return to you today reinvigorated.
After the call, the response.
After the pondering, the wondering.. the responding.
So here I am.
The replenishing mode is the receptive mode. Thought is manifestation.

On Saturday I got so absorbed in pulling out the seal from my shower while I was cleaning. I ended up spending two hours fully focused on that. What meditation!
That night I probably watched The Crown Season 3 and then the next morning I woke up with an idea that started to formulate into a plan very quickly.
Dada dada!
I’m running a competition and am here to tell you the details.
This year has been HUGE!! I feel like I’ve changed in lightyears.
Turning forty makes you assess what you’re doing in your life, I have found, and after a couple of fortieth birthdays early this year, I came home & burst into tears.
The first time it was because everyone had a reason to go home & people waiting, while I came home to my silent temple, alone. No reason to go home, no people waiting.
The second time it was because I’d been at a party with lots of old classmates and people from my adolescence and had been asked 25 times ‘Partner?’ No ‘Kids?’ No. I felt like a complete loser.
That’s why I determined that I was going to make something of this mess. I focused hard & finished drafts 3-5 of my memoir in 10 weeks. That’s the story of the last 7 yrs – losing my head in personal development to the brain surgery & bad relationships that brought it back.
It was a great surprise that Life lead me to Cinta Cafe in Canggu, where I met a guy who encouraged me to put my books out on Amazon. One month later, I’d published my first book, Wonderlust! (& even made the cover ????).
NOW I’m doing a giveaway this week for WONDERLUST!! I’m giving away 10 kindle books and will be drawing the winners out on Saturday.
I’d love you to be a part of it too if you’d love a free copy. You can gift it on if you already have yours.

Wonderlust, set in 2007, is about a travel agent from Perth who goes to Switzerland on a cultural adventure, believing in perfection but finding life in the imperfection. It’s about writing and the switch from consumer to creator, body obsession, a Russian artist, an Irish body-builder, a Swiss design draftsman and reality TV.
It’s a coming-of-age story of an Australian woman, aged 26, and I was inspired by Henry Miller’s Tropic of Cancer. Cafes. Walking. Talking. Loneliness. And of course.. Lust.
Read the sample here: Wonderlust on Amazon.
The paperback & digital are available from here or check in the country-specific sites: www.amazon.com/author/mireilleparker
