Joanne E Galliher
and her writing journey.
How Joanne Galliher envisions the world is always the underlying theme of 90% of her short stories, novellas and novels. "Humanity is like a huge clipper ship. Those aboard are of every race and creed. They must truly work as a mighty Unity in Diversity Team to dash through... to survive... the Tsunami caused by all forms of prejudices--racial, religious, age, gender and socio-economic. Reading is our chance to recreate... and RE-CREATE our views... Views that can hinder or can advance our world. A famous religious man once said, "Make us waves of one sea... Make us flowers of one garden... Make us leaves of one tree..."
Students at Queensland Institute of Graphic Art, in Australia, were paid to design the book covers.
