My Australian visit for APWT, Gold Coast

My Australian visit for APWT, Griffith Uni., Gold Coast and the Federal Free Writer’s Festival was very fulfilling.

A good laugh over my poem ‘Gathering’ (Four Degrees of Separation).

Enriching panel discussions.

My key note speech, well-received. Books sold out. What more to ask.
