After seven years of writing and research and walks, and a baby, and a pandemic- my new book Uprising is done. I'm delighted (and tired!). Come walk with me into the Māori history and myth of The Southern Alps, out with @text_publishing 2 July.

@WritingAnthro @RosemarieNorth @WORDChCh Thanks for coming Pauline! We're super curious about your insights when the time comes - the intersection of contemporary anthropology and contemporary NZ writing and storytelling has our curiousity piqued.

Such fun being @WORDChCh for the weekend. Particularly loved the chance to see Kim Hill interviewing Chris Finlayson and she didn’t disappoint. When I grow up I want to be Kim Hill

Huge mihi to @NicLow1 for making WORD feel far more Indigenous than a mainstream NZ writers festival ever seems capable of; I wasn't the only Maaori in any event I was a part of which is incredible to me ❤️❤️❤️ also the koorero that got shared at the Indigenous hui... Hell yeah.

A 5 day festival feels so weird after you’ve been entrenched in 3-week ones for years. Whaddayasay @WORDChCh shall we find a way to extend a lil bit?
