The Personal Column of a newspaper has always fascinated me, containing as it does, such a wide cross-section of humanity - young and old, rich and poor, male and female. With varying degrees of desperation they are looking for a friend, a lover or even a partner for life. In these six stories I have tried to suggest different types of advertisement and introduce the reader to the sort of people who might have placed them and responded to them. What occurs when they meet isn't always what they expect but I hope that each, in its way, is a love story.

With assistance from the W.A. Film Council, the project was originally conceived as a television drama series but with few production options, I have dusted it off and re-written it as a series of short stories.
