August 2010

Please go to Book Links to check out how to buy Kevin Palmer’s Book; this was launched very successfully at the Writers’ Festival in Byron Bay this August.I was present and so enjoyed meeting up with him after about a twenty year gap! Needless to say I’m chuffed about being mentioned a couple of times …the second time leading into Kevin becoming one of the top Theatrical Agents in Australia..but that’s in Kevin’s second book and my own Stories will be published by that time…

Kevin has been nominated for a Deadly Award for Outstanding Achievement in Literature and the Awards are to be held at the Opera House, Sydney on Monday 27th September. For more info and to vote for him online go to www.vibe.com.au/deadlys.

I am continuing to house/dog/cat-sit so I can write my Book….the change of house/animal/location keeps me disciplined in my writing so please let me know if you have need of an experienced person such as I in the Brisbane CBD or on the Sunshine Coast.

As far as the Casting goes – being a member of the Australian Film Institute keeps me in touch with the Aussie scene along with Screen Hub and being up to date with Showcast and e-Caster, going to the theatre, keeping the networking going.

Try to see “When the Rain Stops Falling” in Brisbane from October 20th (qtix.com.au),  a play by Andrew Bovell originating from Adelaide with Carmel Johnson (as “Beth Martin” throughout the Eight Series) Michaela Cantwell and Anna Lise Phillips are three of the cast members who worked on “Mcleod’s Daughters”.
