Read Nancy's comments on her mentorship with Diana through the Australian Society of Authors
Readers discuss Nancy's
story of her round-the-world voyage:
'The descriptions of her travels made me feel as if I was there,
from the breezes to the smells to the wind and rain to the
freshness and landscape...the freedom.'
Mitch Murphy, 5 March 2012
'When you are on a yacht you see more of the real parts of
countries you visit than when you just jet in as a tourist...Her
descriptions give wonderful insights into cultural and
political differences between exotic places...
the friends they made along the way, both yachties and locals,
give the book colour and interest.'
Armchair Travel, U lysses Bookstore, 19 July 2011

Read extracts & reviews
Diana Giese made an invaluable contribution as editor, motivator and coach to the successful production of our new book. Diana was recommended as a highly competent editor by an associate of ours, and more than lived up to the recommendation. Ever-vigilant and with all the attention to detail you would expect from a professional editor, Diana also brought passion and personal commitment to every facet of the project.

Shooting Stars and Flying Fish
Nancy Knudsen
Allen & Unwin, 2011
Read extracts
When we were preparing to launch our Sail-World cruising site, we put an advertisement in the magazine. A few days later we got an email from an Australian cruising sailor living in Turkey. She and her husband Ted were part-way through a round-the-world cruise. I went off to read her blog about their adventures. Within minutes I was enthralled. So Nancy Knudsen became our Sail-World Cruising Editor…Her tales form the basis of her book, Shooting Stars and Flying Fish . It’s a great read.
Rob Kothe , Editor, Sail-World
