Portrait of former Prime Minister Julia Gillard and Carol Schwartz AM taken (in a quick minute) for the Women’s Leadership Institute Australia last week. It was a pleasure to photograph these warm, smart (and funny!) women, who are completely inspiring in their day-to-day work.

When you open up Womankind magazine to read your poetry partner’s yoga piece and discover that one of your photos was a finalist in their latest ‘Water’ Award. Whhaattt? Thanks @womankindmag 😊 This pic was taken at Point Leo last year. This kid was so happy and determined - despite the weather/conditions.

This is an illustration by Anna Wilson @abottlefullofrain - inspired by one of my @_fourlines_ poems. She is not sure she is happy with it! I think she’s a talent! Go on over to her page to read her comments on this piece and enjoy more of her work. Someone asked - ‘but why ‘cold coffee’?!?? Whhhyyyy!!?’ Head to @_fourlines_ for more musings by Mim and me.

I’ve been working with the @thestellaprize for the past few months on their #2019StellaPrize campaign. It’s been a bloody great time. . On Tuesday night the 2019 Winner was announced. Vicki Laveau-Harvie’s The Erratics took the gong: ‘a darkly funny and powerful book that explores the universal themes of family, the pain they can inflict and the legacy they leave’. I started reading it last night and I found myself laughing out loud at many phrases like her description of her home town “In winter the cold will kill you. Nothing personal.” It’s a dark humour shared by my mother’s family and so for which I have an appreciation. . Pictured with The Erratics in the first pic is Jamie Marina Lau’s debut novel Pink Mountain on Locust Island. Like Vicki, Jamie is also a first time published author and at 22 was the youngest author to make the 2019 shortlist. I’m reading her book concurrently which has been described as ‘a modern Australian take on the classic hard-boiled novel which bounces you between pulverised English, elastic Cantonese and the new dialect of a digitised world.’ It’s wild! Check out these and other Stella Prize books - they are some great titles I may not have found without the work of the prize.
