The constellation Pisces and the story of Aphrodite and Eros, the Two Fishes second edition.

Aphrodite is well known as the Greek goddess of love, romance, and sexuality. Aphrodite is also known to us as   Venus, and the planet is named after her in her honour. This is the story of how Aphrodite came to be. Born in the ocean during a struggle between father and son, she was raised on an island. As an adult she was carried by Zeus to Mount Olympus to work and play with the gods and goddesses who resided there.

After a brief marriage to Hephaestus, she formed a steamy relationship with Hephaestus's brother, Ares and they had a son they named Eros. All her life, she struggled with the unwanted, yet amorous advances of the Titan monster named, Typhon. Eventually, she and Eros had to flee Mount Olympus to escape his wrath, and they eventually became the constellation of the Two Fishes, known to us as Pisces.

 

I began my formal writing with a stage play titled "Death Warmed Up, ' After being inspired by a close friend, Di Day, who I aided with her debut play as her stage manager. "Death Warmed up was a great learning experience for me and I appreciated the cast and crew who laboured with a stage production that lasted nearly three hours. I learned a lot from the experience and by the time the play was performed for second time it had been edited down to two hours. Everyone from cast, crew, and especially the audiences, had a great time, so I was inspired to write my next play "Death Warmed up." The one debuted better than the first so I quickly followed it up with a romantic comedy titled "A lovely lobster tale", and then a historical action sci-fi titled "The Culpeper Code". I also wrote one act plays with Free coffee getting the most recognition. A one act play that I wrote titled "Follicle Farm" became my inspiration for my first novel. The play was terrible, but the book that came from its ashes has received high praise and is described as a delightful and humourous fantasy adventure novel. It takes the reader on a whimsical journey into the microscopic world of the human body. It follows Bobby on a journey of self-discovery of how he tries to convince head-office to implement his discovery of how to reverse alopecia and greying hair. My next book, titled "Your concise guide to the meaning of life," comes from a lifelong habit of trying to help people get more meaning and enjoyment out of their lives. It is a serious book written in an easy-to-read style, with suggestions in point form so that the reader can improve their lives. It has received favourable reviews for a book of this genre. My interest level in Greek Mythology has been with me since I could read. I have also been fascinated with astronomy and astrology. Work, family, and theatre have been my priorities, so until recently I've not been able to progress these interests. I now have four books published that combine these interests with another nine books in the pipeline. My website www.folliclefarm.com.au features my work and has some complimentary short stories set in the Follicle Farm universe.
