“And yet day and night meet fleetingly at twilight and dawn,” he said, lowering his voice again and narrowing his eyes and moving his head a quarter of an inch closer to hers. “And their merging sometimes affords the beholder the most enchanted moments of all the twenty four hours. A sunrise or sunset can be ablaze with brilliance and arouse all the passion, all the yearning, in the soul of the beholder.”- Mary Balogh… Read More The Sydney Sky Cinema

The Writers Wrest is perched in a giant puddle after a couple of days of rain. It’s filled the water tanks which is great, and of course it’s soaked the mail that the postman didn’t bother to push all of the way into the letter box.

I walked through sunny Melbourne today to the Melbourne Writers Festival. I always feel a bit like I’m at home here, it’s where my family is from, where I was born and I love it. Plenty of tram lines lining the sky on the way to where I reached the bridge.

“There it is; the light across the water. Your story. Mine. His. It has to be seen to be believed. And it has to be heard. In the endless babble of narrative, in spite of the daily noise, the story waits to be heard. Some people say that the best stories have no words….”… Read More The Light Across the Water
