Inspiring

Loved the interview with Holly Ringland. Teacher, sage and talented writer, she found the words that motivate those of us who must write to just keep going for the utter joy of creation. Thank you for sharing conversations with similarly inspiring writers. It’s a treasure trove of ideas and encouragement!!!!

Great interview by Meredith Jaffé of Tulmur author Melanie Saward. Along with her long path to publication, Melanie outlines a range of considerations for non-Indigenous writers thinking about writing an Indigenous character.
