Know someone with dreams of becoming a published writer?

Do you have a friend or family member who doesn't have time to commit to a tertiary course but needs occasional help from a real published author?

Creative Writing Northland has launched in Whangārei, Dargaville and the Bay of Islands.

A collective of volunteer mentors, Creative Writing Northland assists aspiring writers of all ages to complete goals which they set themselves. Mentees will be matched with published writers, and each mentee will be assisted to set their own goals then work towards completing the goals.
It's a non-profit organisation and we keep costs as low as possible.

The first six mentors are all published authors and have won numerous awards between them. Jody Reynolds, Catherine Lea, Jenny Purchase, Janine Williams, Renee Liang and Michael Botur are ready and waiting to receive applications from those wanting a mentor. From Kamo to Kaikohe to Kaitaia, we can do our best to go where the learners are.

Bottled Clementine Mandarins

Nickie from Tikipunga

Hi Folks. I used to have a fantastic recipe for whole unpeeled clementine mandarins in syrup with star anise and cinnamon stick added. It has gone astray. Has anyone got such a recipe that dont mind sharing, or even whole limes in syrup? Thank you.
