Since my last post one month after moving house there has finally been progress on the writing front. My short story Helen Shoots the Messenger was published in Page Seventeen’s latest issue – the launch last Sunday was loads of fun and it was great meeting the winners, some who like me were short listed, plus a number of interesting other writers and readers. http://www.pageseventeen.com.au/blog/

The published story, Helen Shoots the Messenger, has been uploaded to this site ~ you’ll find it under Short Stories

Meanwhile I’ve sourced a local writers’ group, my first meeting being last Wednesday. How wonderful to connect with fellow writers in the local area and to be workshopping again!

Thursday night I attended the launch of Mary Manning’s book of short stories, Damaged in Transit, published by Spineless Wonders http://shortaustralianstories.com.au/products-page/print-2/damaged-in-transit-by-mary-manning/. Congratulations Mary!

A wonderful evening at Port Melbourne’s Mars Gallery, launched by Rachel Griffiths.
