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.
