Emerging Writers Festival
I've just got back from the Emerging Writers Festival in Melbourne. It was fantastic and more than worth the price of admission, flights and buying new clothes as I discovered I'd left all my luggage at home! I don't buy new clothes that often, so it was probably a good thing... or at least not as bad as it sounds. It was wonderful to spend time sharing ideas with such a diverse range of creators, poets, novelists, playwrites, even comic writers! If you're interested in the craft of writing I'd say get yourself to the next one, regardless of how 'emerged' you are, it's such a delight to spend time talking about the business, process, craft, communities and inspirations of writing.
My only regret... I didn't bring my camera and capture the event.

Mayor of Shoalhaven?
My Dad might be running for Mayor of Shoalhaven (NSW) this year. I'm pretty darn proud of him and I'm delighted by the wonderful friends and community he has around him as well. He's started up a blog Shoalhaven 2020 that articulates some excellent principles regardless of what electorate you belong to.
