MORE IN 2024!

More Love, More Laughter, More Happily Ever After


It’s going to be a cracker of a year!

The feedback from Beta readers for Love & Laughter has been well worth the wracking nerves of sending it ‘out there.’ 

They helped bring greater depth to the complexities of midlife love. This novella promises to shake up the world of midlifers from a mundane routine existence.

What I read in the holidays:

Just two books, which felt so luxurious to slowly languish through. Both were stories that required that leisurely reading pace, not the fast pace of an edge-of-your-seat story. 

The books in question? The Island of Missing Trees by Elif Shafak.

Touching on love, both young and midlife, culture, ancestry and nature, this story comprises everything I value. Beautifully narrated dual timelines converge seamlessly like a perfectly choreographed ballet. Just stunning.

The second book in question? The Garden House by Marcia Willett. She and I have the following things in common - Marcia Willett Instagram Post
Favourite quote:

Human relationships are never straightforward.


Non-Fiction News:

I love getting a ‘behind-the-scenes’ look at an author’s life whose work I have read. It adds a scintillating layer of interest to the author. You can read about my conversation with author Danielle Corrie, here: 

Writerly News for the Year Ahead:

I’m delighted, nervous, thrilled and intimidated to have started a writing group at our local library.

I’ve never belonged to a writing group before, let alone headed one. But the opportunity presented itself and if you know anything about me by now, you’ll know that I jumped right in, feet first!

If you’re local to MidCoast NSW and would like to join us, comment below or send an email with the header Writing Group to: elora.canne@gmail.com

That’s it from me. I have some fabulous reads from my cozy online author community that I cannot wait to get stuck into. Stay tuned and stay loved up, full of laughter, and happily ever after 😍

The Kind of Life You Want

Redefining Love and Marriage https://unsplash.com/@jennymarvin Committing to a life-long marriage through difficult times takes a lot of courage. I had to define for myself the kind of life I wanted. Was I willing to forgo some of my identity to take on the characteristics of a partner who, just 30 years ago, was a complete stranger to me? Had I really got to know him at all? In this life that we share, how deeply had we truly got to know each other? Not so deeply at all, I was to learn. In spite of the many epiphanies through our year-long travel escapade, what we did on a daily basis in the humdrum of a nine to five lifestyle eroded the  lessons learnt and the coping mechanisms we had adopted. Outwardly we have a wonderfully marvelous life, yet our invisible introspection, unseen by those around us, slowly dims the light in both of our eyes. Old habits took over as we forgot to create special moments together. Our lives became mechanical. Learning to redefine the meaning of l...

There's Always a Solution I said this to a friend the other day who was struggling with tech stuff. She was so grateful for the boost that  she persevered for an entire week , but she did it!  So let’s just expand on the notion here, that ' there's always a solution.' Elora Canne - Memoir Writer I'm delighted to share my conversation with you, from the Living Big Mindfully podcast where host, Kate Champion, and I discussed many later-in-life relationship topics.  But I'm particularly interested in sharing with you, the notion that there is indeed always a solution .  Not only in everyday life situations, as told above, but also in those deeper, more difficult to navigate situations as you'll discover on the podcast. There is always a way around a hurdle,  even if you can't jump over it. To listen in on our conversation, insights and solutions, tap this link:  Living Big Mindfully Podcast Book News: 🫂 Allow me to focus, just for a minute, on those solut...
