Just finished this powerful book and now I’m seeing lots of wonderful photos of writer friends celebrating the launch last night in Perth, so wanted to say congrats to @jtaylorauthor!!!
That little ‘Pre-order’ button is a thing of beauty! Where the Line Breaks is now available to pre-order from the @fremantlepress website, or from your favourite independent bookstore.
Our neighbours across the road (who we’ve adopted over the course of lockdown) brought us daffodils! So we gave them homemade apple cake in return. And it’s Friday!
I don’t remember consciously deciding to write part of Where the Line Breaks in footnotes, it just sort of happened that way. I think I loved the idea of the footnotes growing out of control and taking over, like a wordy, literate monster of some sort - all gnashing verbs and long sticky sentences.
Alongside the wonderful cover by @nadabackovic, here’s my other favourite thing about the physical copies of Where the Line Breaks.
My ‘war shelf’ on the bottom: full of inspiration and research and poetry and humour (have you read the Wipers Times? Highly recommended).
Where the Line Breaks was inspired by a pilgrimage to Gallipoli for Anzac Day in 2013 with @yolly87. It was awe and novel-inspiring.
Wondering what #WheretheLineBreaks is all about? I made a video laying it all out, and you can watch it on YouTube, or through my website (link in my profile).
Another throwback to the 2019 @fogartyfoundation Fogarty Literary Award where I was lucky enough to be offered publication for Where the Line Breaks, and my nephew Kit got to see his mum @fiona_burrows_illustration launch her book Violet & Nothing.
