As a published author I am sometimes invited to special book events, especially around the times of a new book release. Or sometimes simply because the types of books I write suit an upcoming event. Over the span of my writing career I’ve been to several functions, mostly on the Gold Coast because I live in this area, but also in Brisbane and Sydney. I have gathered quite a few photos at these events, though usually not taken by me, and I’ve enjoyed the events more than I can describe in a few words. As they say, a picture tells a thousand words.
A writer spends most of their time alone with their thoughts. I have a home office, a converted bedroom now that my children are all grown up and have moved away. So getting out to an event is wonderful, but because I spend so much time on my own, I sometimes find these events to be quite daunting.
On this page you will find photographs taken at some of the events I have attended, and as I come to attend future events, I will endeavour to add more photos to this page. I hope you enjoy browsing.
