Not quite the Tuesday Poem

but I'm delighted, nonetheless, to announce that I have an Australia Council Grant for a 3 month residency in Paris next year. Needless to say I am over the moon! It's specifically to do research for a young adult book I'm planning as a kind of homage to Paul Gallico's  Love of Seven Dolls. But I'll also be working on poetry and just breathing in all that wonderfulness.



Please come back later for a Tuesday Poem - and, while you're waiting, have a look at the other Tuesday Poems.

Catty, read your lovely memoir of growing up with extraordinary parents recently, so so enjoyable. Will now have to check out your other writing!
Cheers,
