As we’re a mere few weeks away from Christmas I thought I’d put together a series of book posts about some titles I’m particularly interested in or excited about. I know there are a few of you out there with tastes similar to mine, so let us ponder and sigh over these together. If you’re…
Today I thought I’d shine a little more of a spotlight on Miscellaneous Press’ new project. If you haven’t already seen it, the below is taken from here: Miscellaneous Press is pleased to announce that submissions are open for An Equal Task: Celebrating Australian Women’s Writing. Considerable debate and discussion continues to surround the subject…
This month I’ve gone back to making my book reading update into a vlog – but I’m not alone. As you’ll discover, in one capacity or another, the whole family contributed. As you might expect, this makes it slightly chaotic. Keira has begun pestering us about wanting to start a blog. I quizzed her a…
I’m going to send out my periodical newsletter later today and I think (technically) it constitutes as content for here? Indirectly? Yes? Please say yes.

In what may be a decision I’ll later regret, I have signed up to participate in both NaNoWriMo and NaBloPoMo. What are these, you might ask? NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) The objective of nanowrimo is deceptively simple: write 50,000 words of a novel over the course of a month (November). Those numbers broken down…
