In Oamaru last night a group of prominent NZ authors gathered to discuss Janet Frame's writing and its influence in their lives. Each read a passage from Frame and described how it resonated with them. L to R: Penelope Todd, Emma Neale, Kate Camp, Rachel Fenton, Pip Adam.
Showing my appreciation for The Spinoff including Between the Flags in their best books of 2023! Congratulations to fellow @TheCubaPress author @philippa_werry & thanks again Cuba, to the Solomon family, & @NZSocAuthors :) & Stella Chrysostom at Volume! zurl.co/LYS2

Plans are afoot to turn Janet Frame's childhood home into an "open book", with the help of some one-of-a-kind fundraisers. thespinoff.co.nz/books/10-07…

Here is the link for the Friends of the Janet Frame House Fundraiser. Please share or support if you can. Very cool Open Book design for the proposed Visitor Centre. givealittle.co.nz/cause/buil…
Please help share Frame’s brilliance and celebrate her courageous story, set right here in Ōamaru, Aotearoa, her kingdom by the sea.

Bearing the signatures of film maker Jane Campion, former PM Helen Clark, and musician Shayne Carter, a one-of-a-kind jar quince jelly is being auctioned off as part of the campaign launch. Does someone in your life deserve a taste of genius?

2/ The campaign features on One News tonight with the behind-the-scenes look at how the quince tree in Janet Frame’s backyard is helping to *preserve* her memory.
The house Janet Frame grew up in is now a museum. We want to turn the property’s garage into a stunning contemporary visitor centre to celebrate Frame’s work and incredible story. 1/

Pleased for Michael Rosen. Me and my kids love his stories. Read Totally Wonderful Mrs Plumberry just yesterday in fact.
Bit late to see this. But. Smashing to see Between the Flags got a spot in Mudcakes and Rose's magazine, courtesy of Volume Books -- many thanks!
