Without a mobile phone, she can't even chat to her city friends. Life in a country town sucks! The only thing keeping her sane is going for long rides on her pony, Magic, in the Green Mountain wilderness. When her pony's paddock next to Green Mountain is threatened by developers, Saffron gets help from unlikely places and mobilises a community protest. A fast paced adventure, fully illustrated by the author. A tale full of strange and wonderful creatures -- including a very special bird, Saffron's feral family -- bikers, crooks, pony clubbers and a heavy metal band called 'The Cheeseburgers.'

1 y separately published work icon Barking up the Wrong Dog Nick Gray , Queanbeyan : Irrepressible Press , 2001 Z1219642 2001 single work novel This story is set in a realm where the grass is always greener on the other side of the plate. And takes the view that the sound of one hand clapping is applause. It's about being the wrong person at the right time or in the third person on the wrong planet. But suggests that when your best lover runs off with your favourite shirt, the fairy lights still twinkle on the other side of the razor wire. (IrrePRESSible Press website).

1 2 y separately published work icon The Artful Dole Bludger : Was It Arthur or Martha? Caroline Ambrus , Robert Verdon , Queanbeyan : Irrepressible Press , 2000 Z817944 2000 single work novel humour

'Arthur and Martha are two halves of a maladjusted whole who happen to share the same body. As a multiple personality they live separate lives, banking at different banks and and taking their bodily functions in turn... In the midst of this constant negotiation, these two hapless characters are constantly embroiled in the daily grind of getting enough to eat, while trying to follow their artistic careers.

'After exploring every conceivable opportunity for paid work, they become officially and "artfully" unemployed. Martha applies for Newstart Allowance and Arthur applies for a Disability Pension. Their lives take on an unpredictable turn when they are subjected to Centrelink's pitiless scrutiny ... Arthur and Martha beat the bureaucrats in a bizarre plot that will entertain, while poking even more holes in the welfare safety net.' (Back cover)
