Isobelle Carmody launches Rich & Rare with some help from Meredith Costain and Adam Wallace.Outsparkled by Michael Pryor.Rich & Rare – a collection of work from some of Australia’s most talented writers and illustrators.Catching up with the hugely talented and gloriously witty Jude Rossell.
How many writers and illustrators can you pack into the offices of an independent Melbourne Publishing house?
Ford Street was going for the record on Friday night with the launch of Rich & Rare – the latest anthology for teens, edited by Paul Collins.
Ford Street was packed with hugely talented and wonderfully witty Australian writers and illustrators (just like the Rich & Rare collection, itself) with uber fantasy writer, Isobelle Carmody introducing the contributors and cleverly weaving a thread to connect the collection of diverse pieces.
So glad I jumped on a plane to join the celebrations.
Julie Fison is a Brisbane writer and travel lover. Her debut novel for adults ONE PUNCH is a compelling and thought-provoking family drama that follows two mothers forced to make impossible decisions after one life-changing night. Inspired by real events, the story is a sharp study of the complexities of family life and the consequences of being blind to the faults of our loved ones. Julie’s other work includes books for children and young adults – the Hazard River adventure series for young adventure lovers, stories in the Choose Your Own Ever After series that let the reader decide how the story goes, and a play for secondary school students As the Crow Flies. Julie is also a committed traveller and loves sharing tips for midlife adventurers.
