Introduction

Being an autocue operator for ABC Australia's 24 hour news channel, I have a lot of time alone with my thoughts. I sit in a studio with the presenter and 3 robotic cameras, so I thought I would do something useful with my time.

I had hoped to be in front of the camera reporting, not sitting behind it scrolling autocue, but after having a stroke when I was 25, I realised that we have no way of predicting when, where or to what extent adversity will strike - bad things happen to good people, and good things happen to bad people - all anyone can do is keep moving forward.

 So this blog will help me to keep moving forward.
