Michellina (pronounced: Mishaleena!) van Loder

Michellina is freelance Journalist and Blogger who blogs about living with chemical sensitivities (aka Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS)) while sharing her trials and tribulations, often from a foil lined room. During all this intense activity, she finds time to write for Weekend Notes, volunteers her writing services to various charities, and was studying a Professional Writing and Editing course at Victoria University, twice a week. At the end of 2014, she completed her Diploma. She lives somewhere wildly on the Surf Coast of Victoria with a gaggle of four legged friends and a flock of the two legged variety, of whom she considers her 'family'. She lives by the motto: "Never, EVER trust a human who won't allow dogs (cats or other pets) to sleep in their bed (or at least on it!)." Her first published work of nonfiction, 'Netherland Dwarf Rabbits: taking care of them in Australia', is available on Amazon and Smashwords.
