In Durban everything she owned was stolen, including her precious diaries, and a door seemed to close on her writing. Here she met her Australian husband, Alan, getting married in Grahamstown before sailing for Sydney where she worked at Manly Library and then spent two years in Rabaul, New Guinea. The couple later returned to South Africa, choosing Cape Town in which to re-embrace Africa and raise their two sons. Alan worked for an airline, while Daphne turned her hand to writing a children screenplay for television. In her ongoing quest for spiritual awareness, she joined a cult but, after many years, this ended in a bizarre excommunication. Landing back in the real world with a bump, Daphne found a job in a textile factory, bringing her face to face with some of Cape Town society s very colourful underbelly.
The family returned to Australia some twenty years after Daphne and her new husband had first moved there. In time, they settled on Bribie Island, Queensland, and began running a travel agency amongst the picturesque Glasshouse Mountains. Daphne now committed herself to a path she had never given up on - writing. Travel articles, newsletters, short stories - some featured on local radio - and two novels, Under Pressure and Shadow Patterns, were the creative explorations of her life s experiences and greatest passions: family, spirituality, voyages of discovery, and the personal and cultural complexities of a troubled land. It was an immense satisfaction for her to have completed and published Shadow Patterns shortly before she passed away in 2012.
