Kerry-lyn Radloff, South African born, currently lives and works in Tanzania, East Africa. Writing - poetry and prose, is a means to calm a restless spirit. In addition to writing, Kerry-lyn paints and works as an interior designer for safari lodges in East Africa. In the absence of man and children, Kerry-lyn's companions are Meme-the-Mad, Kuku, Harriet, Mouse-the-mostly-brave and Biltong Jones. These animals - 3 dogs and 2 cats, appear in her illustrated children's books.
