A new year, Temple writings, and the promise of good reads...


So it’s 2013 already. A year of heatwaves and fire – and we’re only two weeks in. It’s also been a busy two weeks at my desk. I’ve been writing every day, but usually for someone else. I’m hoping that next month there will be time to do some writing for myself. And that there’ll be time to read...


A colleague recently put me onto Peter Temple, specifically his book The Broken Shore, which was listed as one of the top 20 Australian Books in last year’s ABC poll. I’m taking her advice – and looking forward to the read. 2013 also holds the promise of a new book from Tim Winton, and at least one from my friend Mark Tredinnick. And Gents – if you’re out there – I’m optimistic. There are spaces on my bookshelves already.
