SHORT COURSE: My Short Course in writing for children at RMIT (city campus) is coming up so for anyone who’s been thinking about joining us you’d better get in soon! Places are limited to 15 and are filling up nicely. The course runs for 6 weeks and starts on Wednesday July 15. Classes are once a week 6-9pm every Wednesday. With a particular focus on picture books we’ll be looking at getting work to a publishable level – whether or not you go for that final step is up to you. The process of refining stories, thinking about format and audience will be a benefit to any writer, regardless.
EXHIBITION: To my great disappointment it looks like the exhibition will be next year now. It is probably for the best – more time to create the last few special works, book in to the best possible gallery space and do everything properly. I’ll also be working on a fun series for the Christmas markets – so stay tuned.
My EPIC is progressing well. I had a very successful day of writing today
For a textless work, there sure is a lot of planning and writing preparation going on.
MARKETS: I’ll be in Sydney this weekend for ASA meetings so Pete will be manning the stall at Sunday Arts at the Convent. The full range of work will be there as usual – just without me. I’ll miss being there very much – I love these markets! If you need signed books, don’t worry, I’ll be creating a book plate that I can sign and write a message on, which can be posted out to anyone that missed it. Just let me know if you need one.
Now, it’s back to work assembling prints!
