Writing family stories before they're gone

Michael from Tikipunga

What could be more important than getting family history written and recorded? Here's how I help.

I'm Mike, a writing specialist based in Whangarei.

My favourite clients in 2018 were families who needed their elders' stories taped, typed and turned it into a book or website so the stories are never lost. I help with recording oral interviews so our elders voices and tales can be shared with the rest of the family.

Please sing out if you'd like some help writing your whanau stories, whether you need a quick hour of assistance or a big piece of ghostwriting taken care of.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
