If not, any idea where I can donate them?
Interesting discussion with lots of food for thought. 👇
Sort of amazing that there are only 2 blokes out of 33 Varuna fellowship winners (congrats all by the way!). A symptom of an abiding culture in OZ that still sees the arts/literature as feminine pursuits?varuna.com.au/news/vrf24

Fantastic advice from @m_stanton @BrisWritersFest #BWF23: Think about where to add a “but” when you’re telling your story - and keep doing it! #writingtips
Absolutely killer presentation from @nat_amoore with @oliverwinfree on backing vocals @BrisWritersFest #BWF23. Roaring audience, hands up everywhere, rapturous applause at the end! ⚡️💥
