I am a ceramic Artist who lives on a small island underneath Australia. I balance amazing cooking with indifferent housekeeping. Vacuuming is BAD for your soul.
This is a literary blog dedicated to books and writing and the creative process. As a columnist for Arts Hub and a contributor to other publications, I have posted a number of articles on aspects of writing, how books add value to our lives, and issues around publication. I include many of the book reviews I've published over the last several years--on Australian as well as international titles. I am represented by the Curtis-Brown Literary Agency for my fiction. As a creative writer, I have used my writing journey in workshops and in inspirational speeches. Much of this material also appears on Word Search. I am currently writing a novel on a social justice theme--mandatory detention in Australia--and this subject makes an appearance on Word Search now and then.
