We got spoiled last night! Incredible homemade Indian food and a great view thanks to the lovely @cheerfulworrier, who I met thanks to #HowToBeAustralian!
It’s good to know that even 4000 years ago, people were into true crime.
Huge delight today to speak with Eugen Bacon about writing and editing across genres and her incredible body of work for @writingnsw! Hopefully next time we can do it in person.
Today my fatigue feels like a brutal hangover. Occasionally when I tell ppl I have CFS, they say, ‘I get really tired too.’ I wish I were just tired. That sounds wonderful right now.
In ep 23 James tries not to gush (and almost succeeds!) while talking to internationally bestselling, multi-award winning author David Vann about the trauma that drives his work, and the creative process that fosters his raw and visceral writing style.
A literary meditation on the landscapes and violence of both the mulga plains of south-west Queensland and the rural backroads of Andalusia, Amnesia Road is rhapsodic and brutal, portraying the natural environments of these regions with textured, chromatic reverence while unflinchingly detailing the atrocities committed there. Through travels in both regions, Stegemann asks a question that is ‘both simple and bewilderingly complex: where did the present come from?’
Ten years later: still taking pics of the Opera House.
Hairdressers always style my hair as if I’m a cyclops.
In episode 22, Melbourne artist @a.v.nash discusses using humour to cope with stressful situations, the challenges faced by new arrivals to Australia, and the commonalities between Sri Lanka and Melbourne (hint: its pigeons). #WhatToExpectWhenYou’reImmigrating is out from from @affirmpress
