Peace & Quiet
September 5, 2008

Finding space, silence and time to write is a challenge to anyone, but as a mum with small kids, a farm, a drought, and community commitments, my novel writing has taken a back seat.
Those of you who are eagerly awaiting my fourth novel will be pleased to know I have a remedy!
Chris from the Tasmanian Writer’s Centre has offered me their writer’s cottage in Hobart and that’s where I’ll be for the next two weeks bashing out a good portion of my new book.
Might just find a little time to tinkle the keys of the antique Lipps piano, shown above, which is housed there.
I’m hoping that by the time I return to the farm we would’ve had a good two inches of rain, the school will be still open next year and my manuscript will be nearly finished as opposed to only just started.
Yay! I’m so excited. The TWC cottage is a rural novelists dream come true. Thank you!
