Social media has its benefits for the writer. I especially like Instagram where I can upload all my photographs of nature, the cat, holidays and the like. I decided to reveal my true identity on all social media channels. After all, what is the point of hiding under a pseudonym or a moniker of your initials. I am Helen Hagemann, mother, grandmother, friend, nature lover, editor, reviewer of poetry and amateur photographer. I also write! To date, I have several poetry books, two novel manuscripts and I am writing a third novel called 'The Last Asbestos Town'. This latest novel is about the eradication of "ALL" asbestos from the world. So it's set in the future when there is public enemy No. 1. In other words, too many people are dying from asbestos related diseases and the commodity has to be destroyed whether in pure or established form. My novel focuses on one town, "Farmbridge" and is loosely based on Collie, WA. Fortunate for me, having visited the town many times I have the perfect building. The local Girl Guide Hall - a perfect setting for a murder, a ghost, and a building that wants to be saved!
