Abby Wilder is an author from the South Island of New Zealand.
She loves stories in all forms; film, photography, music, but it’s the simplicity of written words that she loves the most . . . well, written words and binge watching television series.
Since a love of reading has remained constant in her life, she couldn’t imagine anything better than being a writer so she set out to achieve just that.
Abby has one husband, two children, three cats and a dog called Joss.
So glad I found your blog!! Looking forward to following a fellow writer just across the ditch!! ☺️

Just read the ‘about’ on your blog . . . I may have misjudged the the width of the ditch 🙂
It’s great to connect with you. I’m afraid I haven’t connected with many other authors as I’m a little of a ‘head down get my writing done’ sort of author. That’s something I want to change though! Thanks for dropping by my site. Hope to chat again in the future.

Oh and yes I’m in Australia! NSW side so nz is only a 3 hrs flight away!
I think I need to take a leaf out of your book! I spend more time connecting & playing with social media then writing sometimes!!

That will teach me for not reading things properly. I read ‘England’ and not the ‘New’ before it.

Can’t say I’ve read the novel but I did watch the movie years ago. I might just have to add it to my ever-growing ‘to read’ pile!

Oh I didn’t know there was a novel, I just love the movie. The main character is called Joan wilder, there’s a funny video on YouTube that I reckon you’ll love from the movie (which you might remember)!! go to this post and scroll towards the bottom: https://millieschmidt.wordpress.com/2016/03/01/killing-off-a-favourite-character/

I didn’t even remember the name! Mine’s a pen name which I took from my love of the Laura Ingalls Wilder novels when I was little. I will check out that clip 🙂

Hi Isabelle,
Yes, in my ‘All things Forever Blue Post’ I mentioned your beautiful painting! I made sure I linked back to your site, and made sure your were credited – I hope you don’t mind. I searched the internet for things related to the title of my book, and your painting came up.
All the best,
Abby
