FRESH FROM THE DUST IS AN ENRICHING AND DETAILED STORY OF PEOPLE STRIVING TO SURVIVE... Fresh from the Dust transports us into the West Australian outback during the early stages of the Second World War, where Steve Robinson has had a severe blow to his head, causing amnesia and epilepsy. This tragic event spurs painful consequences for himself and his family. Steve's wife, Irene, does her best to carry on, but finds herself caught between her husband who is now a different person since the accident, to the diverse range of people she encounters while she navigates her way through the western side of Australia. Steve's accident sets off a chain of events that makes Fresh from the Dust an enriching and detailed story that runs deep with an array of complex characters.

Having an unusual history, yet a positive outlook, Dorothy has many experiences to draw on to satisfy her high level of creativity. She was a substitute teacher at age twelve, an accountant at age seventeen, excelled in postgraduate nursing in four areas, an artist winning many prizes, art teacher, violin teacher, played the violin, viola and mandolin in several orchestras, established four organisations and created and sold language products. Dorothy volunteered as a counsellor to prisoners and has been a public speaker and preacher. Dorothy has been in extreme danger several times, but through faith, has been miraculously spared.
