What a fabulous two days! I had the honour of chauffeuring Anna Campbell to the Gold Coast Literati Festival, which made for a very entertaining drive. (I perfected my u-turns in the Surfers Paradise streets as google maps led me up ‘no through road’ after ‘no through road.’) I wore my favourite coat – which Continue reading

Get Reading! Half Moon Bay is ‘Ms June’
I’m absolutely delighted that Half Moon Bay is the June book for the Get Reading Programme. It’s wonderful to be part of such a vibrant initiative and thanks to Penguin Australia for helping to make it happen. My year as a Reading Champion in 2012 allowed me to promote reading and literacy so it’s great Continue reading

And the winner is??
After much deliberation by Zeus the winner of the Advance Review Copy of HALF MOON BAY is Cath Evans. It took Capt G a while to unstick the winner’s name from Zeus’s nose after the salty sea dog buried his head in the hat! Cath, please send me your postal address and I’ll put it in Continue reading
Where have I been? You work it out!
It’s Zeus here. Yep, I hate to admit it, but Helene lost the plot so it’s up to me to sort out… She ended up so caught up in the journey she forgot to post more “Where’s Zeus” photos for my giveaway. To salvage something from the wreckage here’s the deal. (It’s the least I Continue reading
