Hello!
Thank you for visiting this website.
I first became involved in this amazing bush medicine story after publishing my book, A Look Over The Edge which was the achievement of a life long dream - to write a book one day! Writing a book is one
thing, marketing is a whole new learning curve. I began taking my book and many similar books to large field days, and also set up my small business, Aussie Outback Books. Sorry book lovers - I have taken the book website off for the time being as I am not able to maintain it up to standard and won't be doing the big field days this year. I still have plenty of books on hand including my own book pictured here so please call me if you want a copy.
It was through the books my first introduction to Scaevola spinescens came via a story contained in the late George Latham's wonderful book - 'Copperwire George', where in his words he tells the story of how white people in Western Australia first found out about the 'maroon bush'. He also tells another story of a lady he put onto the maroon bush tea for her cancer, leaukemia I think it was, and how he lost track of her and met her again 20 years later in good health.
After writing 'A Look Over the Edge' I determined not to write another book until I had a big enough inspiration. I believe I have found my big inspiration.
This amazing little plant. I welcome any personal stories of the use of this plant to become part of a book outlining the history of its use in Western Australia and also any information on the plant which may aid in research. This will bring together a pool of information and experience to help individuals who want to try something different but are not sure which way to go. Please contactme if you have anything you feel should be included in this book, or you may wish to contact me for something else - whatever reason I look forward to hearing from you. Since the big changes regarding my licences to pick scaevola spinescens in 2008 and the petition I have been involved in running book writing is on hold, however I hope to see some good changes this year. If you feel you can help or want to add your voice in any way please don't hesitate to call me or email. Jeanie
