I am literally on the other side of the world! Arrived at the Byron Bay Writers Festival this afternoon and met up with the world-famous Jeanette Winterson, a wonderful lady who also lives in Manchester. We enjoyed an excellent party – great place, great food, and great views of the Pacific Ocean. I also got to catch up with many Australian friends that I had met in Singapore. Tomorrow I have two panels: Books That Changed Me and Gems – Short stories. Here for 4 days ’til Monday.
