Take a Judge, a Queen and a scribbling line of writers and what to you get? Corrugated Lines: A Festival of Words.

Even as I write this, I’m still pinching myself on the arm and telling myself “it really did happen”. I’ve got the photos to prove it. The programme is sitting on my desk - my name is right there in it. I've even got the drinks bill reminding me I spent nineteen dollars on a cocktail – twice! and yet I’m waiting to wake up and discover it was all a dream -
a beautiful, wonderful, exciting dream.
It was an absolute honour and privilege to be invited to the 2016 Corrugated Lines: A Festival of Words – Broom’s readers and writers festival, now in its fifth year.
And I felt so incredibly blessed and humbled to share the programme listing with esteemed and inspiring writers such as Zohl de’ Ishtar, Mari Lourey, Emilie Collyer, Andrew Burke, Dr. Peter Stride, Jacqueline Wright, Juliet Middleton, Antoine Bloemen and the incredible Pat Lowe, among many others.
Infused with stories from the Kimberley and across Western Australia at its heart, to have my little book about Nepal included in this festival was indeed a privilege.
The organisers and volunteers who put together this amazing programme deserve bouquets of accolades and congratulations heaped upon them, as the festival was a feast of ideas mixed with thought provoking discussions, conversations and stories to hold you captive and poems and plays to whirl you away.
The creative inspiration that flowed from the sessions energised both the mind and the soul and is sure to stay with me for many years to come.
