| With Jean Kittson |
Last Thursday I attended the launch of Seniors Stories Volume 3. It is a compilation of stories written by older people from all over NSW. Over 500 stories were submitted with 100 chosen as outstanding examples of literary talent and creativity.
Why am I so proud? Because my story “Dingo Advocate” was selected to be included!
Fine weather, a very friendly crowd in attendance and caring hosts made for a lovey day. The book was launched at NSW Parliament House by the Minister for the Aging, The Hon Tanya Davies MP. Jean Kittson was a highly entertaining MC and genuinely interested in the writers whose stories we included in the book.
A big thank you to Narelle Noppert, President of my local branch of the Fellowship of Australian Writers for accompanying me and making the day so special.
On the train trip into Sydney we talked non-stop about writing. The journey home was very different. Hardly a word was spoken. We were both head our heads buried in the book.
