Reviews
"It is a key handbook for all book publishers to use within their respective businesses and to train all of their team members, and should be placed on every desk to answer everyday questions." - Darrell W. Gunter, Learned Publishing "Coauthor Thad McIlroy sums it up best: '... I won't guarantee that metadata will sell your book, but I guarantee that your book won't sell without metadata'." - Kimberly Lew, Publishing Trends

The poetry collection called Firefly Zodiac has a focus on the big picture, our planet earth, our galaxy and constellations beyond. Fiona telescopes space and time into our view, giving a fresh perspective on everyday events. Surprise is an element of her poetry, as well as refreshment of the senses. Fiona is passionate about human relationships, and the natural world. She transcends the boundaries between the seen and unseen, tangible and intangible. The reader becomes a space traveller. The poems hover between the terrestrial and the celestial. The energy of each word, line and verse draws us into the line between the material and numinous world.
'Heavens above, heavens below. Only an inkling of the infinite can stun...'
"This new collection of Fiona's poetry takes us to the ethereal universe of her soul and mind. The poems dance melodically through the sky to her own tune, illuminating and igniting the passion of our inner fire. She reveals a deep understanding of the oneness of humanity and nature. Fiona writes with honesty, generosity and hope." -Maria Lourdes Doronila OAM, Poet & playwright
