Sharkfin's starting school, but all the other fish seem afraid of him. When he gives them gifts, they swim away. When he does tricks he fumbles and they laugh at him. But with some words from his parents and a chance to reach out to a new friend, Sharkfin might just learn that friends should love him for who he is and not what he brings them.

She later completed a Diploma of Arts and participated in various writing groups, finding fulfilment through both her writing and through encouraging others to pursue their own creative goals. When she isnt writing, she can be found reading, drinking coffee or spending time with her husband, family and friends.
