"Turn Left at the Devil Tree" and "Tammy Damulkurra" Darwin Launch

On February 28th 2014 we launched both these books at Parliament House in Darwin. Thanks to everyone who turned up. 

Thanks particularly to Jacky Phillips, who was a 13 year old Sunshine Girl when we wrote 'Tammy Damulkurra'. She was willing to get up and talk about the writing process and say nice things like - it was the reason the girls wanted to come to school each day.

This is not only a nice thing to say, but demonstrates the power and value of story telling in education.

This is a pretty bizarre story, but I kind of like it. I am a person who enjoys reading blogs that are like this. First of all, the way that you wrote this blog is just too good. I mean, there are people who have no idea how to pace their work, but you are clearly a person who does. I hope that you write more stuff like this, I will be actively supporting you from here on out, man.
