Estelle Tang from Kill Your Darlings recently interviewed me about Miscellaneous Voices and the podcast is up now at the Killings blog. I believe it goes for around twenty minutes. Talking about blogging makes me realise how thin on the ground my own posting has been this week … or, heck, this year even. xxx
So we hang out in the car for a little bit.
The school run goes on. This past weekend saw a procession of birthday parties, sleepovers for the kids, interviews (more on that later), and toy library duties. Keira even played her first game of Lacrosse. It might also be her last game, but she gave it a go. That’s right the Andrews family circus rolls along right into…

Then! If…
Open, if you’re curious, to page 386 – at Katherine Susannah Prichard’s letter to Miles Franklin. It’s quite a book. I do love an anthology*! *Ha! Did you see that? Subtlety is my art 😉
I needed a change, something pretty dramatic. I’ve been a hair-rut for years (if you discount this major haircut almost exactly two years ago.
