I have been writing lectures all day and my mind has drawn a blank but can anyone think of any Australian short stories that eventually became novels?

Delighted to be part of this collection and to have the opportunity to write something with my fabulous PhD student, @lukecjackson aup.nl/en/book/978946… @WriteLitDeakin

@BriohnyDoyle Wonderful Briohny, especially that last part about the power to power real change!

OMG and thanks to the VPLA judges for this incredible reading of Echolalia 🙌😭
