By Lyn Funnell
I wish that I was an Amoeba.
How wonderful it would be
If I could spend the whole of my life
Completely surrounded by me!
I’d awake with a smile in the morning
And as soon as I opened my door
An eager admiring group of Me’s
Would greet me with a roar.
My life would be simple and happy.
We’d never argue or fight.
We’d all live together in harmony
Knowing that we’re always right.
There’s only one thing that could spoil it,
‘Cause after I’d had my tea,
I’d realise that we’re all suffering from
A split personality!
Author Bio:
Lyn had very successful careers as an Air Hostess, Sales Rep, (she was one of only a couple of women. She beat all the men regularly, becoming the Top Rep in the UK, and 2nd in the world.) And then Catering took over. She did everything from the washing-up, to Silver Service Waitress, and Chef. A few times, she had to cook the meal, dash round the other side and Silver Serve it! She collected all interesting recipes while she worked.
In between all this, she wrote as often as she could, building up a reputation as a published short story writer, (Horror and a twist in the tale,) and a Poet. She has appeared as a Performing Poet, and a Demo Chef. Then she discovered the world of the Food & Travel Writer. And that’s what she has continued doing to this day. She has continued to collect interesting recipes from different countries.
She enjoys entering Competitions, submitting her original recipes. She was first in many Competitions, including the Good Housekeeping Millenium Menu, Fruits of France, Bernard Matthews Turkey Recipe, and appeared on BBC’s The One Show Spag Bol contest. She was one of three Finalists, coming 2nd, which makes her Britain’s Spag Bol Queen!
After several years of being messed around by Editors, and having loads of contacts, Lyn formed her own online Magazine, vowing to treat her writers fairly, and to do everything possible to further their careers, publicise their books, etc. She had a band of excellent regular writers, and the Magazine went from strength to strength!
Lyn has several books published on Amazon.
Her publishers are Michael Terence Publishing: www.mtp.agency
