Blog #10 Hotel Quarantine DAY FIVE
You’ll never guess where I am! Oh, right. There you go. Well done, you. But just remember – no one loves a clever dick! Anyway I’ve been inundated by an avalanche of questions (FACT CHECK REQUIRED) about particular details of … Continue reading
Blog #9 2020: Hotel Quarantine DAY FOUR
Back again. First up congratulations to anyone who correctly identified the intertextual links to the two films in the previous blog. Especially ALEX G. who picked “All work and no play makes Ard a dull girl” as being a reference … Continue reading
Blog #8 2020: Hotel Quarantine DAY THREE
Yes it’s hard to believe but it’s already GROUNDHOG DAY THREE here in the 5 Star High Security Marriott. Honestly it seems like yesterday that I was moaning and whining about it “only being DAY TWO“! Anyway I’ve got loads … Continue reading

Blog #2 2020: In which we have absolutely the right kind of visitor.
It’s always lovely when writer friends are in town and drop in for a visit and it’s especially lovely when that visitor is the inaugural Australian Children’s Laureate (2012-13) BOORI MONTY PRYOR. Besides being an award-winning author (PM’s Award 2011 … Continue reading

Well it’s 2020 and I can’t believe most of January is gone already. Could everyone just slow down a bit till I catch my breath! I did a quick check and saw that in 2019 I only managed 7 blogs … Continue reading
