More tales from the Syd-Newy train - our guard message is so kind and he tells us where he's located and to come and see him if we need anything and I feel like we might all just line up to get some advice or life reassurance from him.

On the train trying to nut out what the r'ship is between the guy behind me & his caller. He said he was wearing contact lenses & a blue polo shirt. Then said he was about to go through a tunnel when we were no where near one & yet somehow they hung up on him 1st?

It was a great #BooksAtTheBowlo on Tuesday with Lisa Kenway & her debut All You Took From Me. We talked memory & consciousness, amnesia, emotional isolation, atmospheric settings and of course the writing (and re-writing) process.

Liane Moriarty w @katemildenhall was honest & generous packing in transit delays, writerly instinct, getting stuck every day, permission to write about everyday people plus death, dying &belief. I know! It’s a lot but none of it was half as heavy as it sounds. @panmacmillan

the euphoria and transcendence we’ve been led to believe would happen when we gaze upon earth from space is more likely to leave us despondent and depressed.

...as a way to receive ideas or figure out where to go with what you were working on. Also really liked Kate’s idea of ‘trying on process like a costume’ borrowing what other people do to see if it works for you.
