Skellie

An amature Australian freelance writer, of poetry, kids books, photography and visual art. I am a very proud mum of four children. I have been away from the hub for quite a while undertaking a Psychological Science degree, which I have now completed and I am happy to be back.

I joined hubpages under my nick name Skellie but my name is Tammy. I enjoy writing poetry and childrens books but have spent the past two years researching for a non fiction manuscript. Most of my working career was in promotions, fashion & tv commercials.

Noble House publishing added my work to a couple of anthologies, which made my day.

Painting, entering art competitions and writing, seems to be my favourite past time. Basically anything that enables feedom of expression, is where I am! Home made soap, is also something I enjoy doing, for my family and friends.

I my early days on here, I went by the pen name: Tassie Stuart. Today, I am tending to just use my own name.

I have dropped out of social media quite a lot, due to how busy my life became a t one point. So I do not have links to provide at this time. Something for future days to come!

I have many interests, wood carving, poetry, painting, inventing and anything that is a bit extreme sport wise. I am small framed but do what I can - such a buzz!

I believe in peace, love and contentment for all. There is far to much aggression in the world today and people need to speak up! We could all make a difference, if we really wanted too.

Cheers Skellie (Tammy)

  Sometimes in life we lose touch with who we are and where we belong. We must stand up straight and start the process towards gaining control back.

  My Healthy Smile

  This is a poem that helps children learn the importance, of brushing their teeth. Fun and easy for the child too learn. Brightly coloured pictures entice your child to read on further. As they do, they are learning and don't even realize. This is a poem that allows you and your child, to have fun!

  Hub: Poor Me Syndrome

  2 years ago

  Sick of listening to people complain, I wrote this hub. Hoping that people might take charge of their lives. Take a positive step towards helping themselves and appreciate what life puts in front of them. Show strength and rise above it! Don't give up! Everybody has that strength within them.
