About me - Les Scammell

About me

I am a freelance writer who divides his time between professional writing, writing for fun, and being a mature aged father of five girls, all under 8. I write professionally and prolifically for business blogs (some times as many as 10 posts each day) on topics that range from training (in a variety of industries) through to SEO and online marketing. As a professional writer, no topic is impossible (with a little research).

I have worked as an educator in the tertiary area of education specializing in management (particularly small business management), marketing, IT, and interpersonal skills.

What I like most is writing about topics that really grab me so I  writes on numerous personal blogs as well as here on Helium. My favorite blog is just4families.com where I often writes on family related issues, however, my current project putting together a blog on the BestAustralianHolidayDestinations.com has really re-sparked an interest in Australia and everything we have to offer.

What pleases me most is being invited to participate on Helium as a Channel Steward for Australia and the South Pacific. I look forward to working with other writers from this area.

If you're lucky, you may get a few hours sleep and perhaps even start to feel a little 'normal' again. Some mother's experience a feeling of euphoria, particularly new mothers, however, as many as 80% of new mothers experience a case of the baby blues. In some cases this can last for several weeks. Baby blues is not something that a new mother can control. The first thing to remember is that no o...
