Donna MulvennaDonna Mulvenna is a horticulturalist, whose journey as a writer began when moved to the Amazon rainforest in French Guiana. For four years she wrote from a platform high in the canopy where the wildlife became her only company. Through her writing sh hopes to give readers a glimpse of the wonder she discovered in the rainforest, reveal the profound effect it has on people's lives, and share why it is more important than ever before, to reconnect with the natural world. 'Nobody leaves the Amazon rainforest unchanged, ' says Donna, when explaining why she no longer feels the need to own a mobile phone, buy material possessions, or even wear shoes. When not writing or gardening, she can be found sitting under a tree reading or paddling along a river in a sprint canoe. Donna is a Fellow of the International League of Conservation Writers, and the author of Happiness is Green, Wild Roots: Coming Alive in the French Amazon, and The Awe of Nature. She co-authored All Things Breathe Alike: A Wildlife Anthology, and is the co-editor of Tales of the River. Happiness does find us, she says. We just have to slow down and lighten our load a little. Only when we give ourselves space, do we discover the wonder and awe in our natural world, and in the process gain a true sense of who we are, why we are here, and where we are heading.
