www.myspace.com/charlottesquireaotearoa I'm a singer/songwriter/freelance writer from Aotearoa New Zealand. I am soooo in love with my place of birth. This land is awesome, it's so fresh and alive and (parts of it) are pristine forest and waters. I've been a freelance writer for the past five years, focussing on positive news. I was delighted to find Ode, and I love finding it in my letter box once a month. As a natural extension of being a positive news freelance writer and being a major 'dream and do it' person, I'm setting up Happyzine - a good news electronic magazine. It has a New Zealand focus, and also features world-wide good news. But more on that in my first exchange. I love to sing too, I've recently completed my first album. It's called Turangawaewae - Place to Stand (see my web link above). I also recently gave birth to our first child - his name is Kahu - and he is of course, gorgeous!
