First, an apology for my long silence. Since I last posted I’ve been in hospital twice and have had to focus on my health. Hopefully, all is now sorted out and I can get back to everything I’ve been putting aside. When we last spoke, I told you about the amazing experience we had during …
If you remember, I mentioned that I spent two weeks in Mauritius towards the end of 2022. I haven’t had a chance to tell you more about that trip – the end of the year became so busy that I skipped a few posts over the course of December. Regardless, I feel the time is …
I’m struggling to make sense of the fact that 2022 is at an end, and that it’s time for me to start planning the year ahead. Somehow, with all my recent travels, it feels like I’ve skipped a few months so my brain is telling me there’s still plenty of time left this year. Which …

Hello everyone – it’s me, Fiji! I’m so excited right now that I’m bouncing up and down and wagging my tail full speed. Because the book that Mom and I wrote is now available on Amazon. Even more than that, we’re going to be having a launch party on Zoom and would love for you …
I was listening to one of my favourite podcasts recently when the presenters mentioned the word blursday. It’s described as the sensation that one day blurs into the next. The word fits the way I’ve been feeling over the past few days perfectly. And it’s exhausting. For one thing, I’m finding it hard to motivate …
Here is another podcast interview I did recently, this time with the Eyes on Success podcast. It’s not often that the interviews I give are based primarily on my illustrated children’s series, “The Adventures of Missy Mouse”.
